Abstract: Abstract This study approaches the spatial stratification phenomenon through a data-based social stratification approach. In addition, by applying a dissimilarity-based clustering algorithm, this study analyzes how regions cluster as well as their disparities, thereby analyzing socio-spatial inequalities. Ultimately, through map visualization, this study seeks to visually identify spatial forms of social inequality and gain insight into the social structure for policy implications. The results determine how the regions are socioeconomically structured and identify the social inequalities between the spaces.
