Abstract
The cities of Mérida (Mexico) and Barcelona (Spain) are located in regions with strong tourism associated with their heritages, their climatic conditions and their coastal locations. In addition, they attract those living in neighboring countries with higher costs of living because of the better climate and the more affordable costs of living which permit a “great lifestyle”. Given these conditions, middle-class persons from the United Statesand Canada, in the case of Mexico, and from France, Germany and England or other EC countries, in the case of Spain, without work obligations in their country of origin (because they are retired or have some income), take up residence in these cities. As well, the development of off-site work and economic globalization has contributed to the increased mobility of businesses to other countries. These socio-economic factors along with a particular residential and tourist production strategy in these regions give rise tosituations of tourism, partial exit and immigration. Using various quantitative and qualitative methodologies, this article analyzes the characteristics and territorial distribution ofmiddle class international migrants in both cities as a starting point to study the impact of this phenomenon on gentrification and residential segregation. The results obtained in both cities are similar. Both cases deal with continuous growth, with the migration of middle classes increasing in importance and visibility, reinforcing and increasing the existing residential segregation in these cities.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
