Abstract
The book is the next in a series of publications focusing on the Czech capital from the point of view of social geography. The core of the publication is an evaluation of the city's social environment, i.e. to an extent an invisible phenomenon which could be partly described through the social structure of the population.
However, a substantial element of the social environment is also created by the social climate, which is shaped not only by residents but also by users of the urban environment. Similarly to our previous essays, all the chapters are based on empirical work with various types of data and employ a combination of statistical data analysis with a more deep-reaching view of specific areas in the form of case studies.
Key themes are demographic ageing, social polarization, crime, international migration, and changes in the location of employment or commercial suburbanization.
