TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - On the edge: changing geographies of the global city precariat in London and Hong Kong JO - Urban geography A1 - Jordan, Lucy P.

In this paper, we estimate the location of precarious work migrants in two global cities, London and Hong Kong, for both the 2001 and 2011 censuses, using a variety of spatial demographic and quantitative techniques, and then analyze the spatial overlap between this population and immigrant-serving third sector organizations. The results suggest both similarity, in particular between accommodation and work precarity, and difference, with an increasingly tenuous overlap in London by 2011.
