Abstract: This paper explores the diversity of the social housing stock at the local level. It focuses on four dimensions: the characteristics of the dwellings, the socioeconomic profile of the tenants, the dynamics of construction and the range of agents who manage this segment of the housing stock. Using data from the Répertoire du Parc Locatif Social (SOeS, 2013) and from the French census (Insee, 2013), we distinguish between ten types of social housing stocks in the Paris metropolitan area. First, their contrasts are related to the characteristics of the dwellings, which are largely inherited from construction policies of the 1960s-1970s. Second, the diversity of the social housing stock is determined by the category of dwellings recently produced according to the type of households they are aimed at. Third, the organization of the social housing policy varies according to the local actors? interests and objectives, even if housing policies remain strongly centralized in France. Overall, the findings cast more light on the mechanisms that shape specific social housing patterns and enhance the reflexion about the relationship between this housing stock and residential segregation dynamics.
