title: [Spatial segregation of old people in West German cities].
abstract: The presented segregation analysis of the spatial segregation of the aged produces differentiated segregation data of eight large cities of the Federal Republic of Germany for the first time. The investigations confirms the hypothesis that people who are older than 65 are the mostly segregated age group of the population. There is a trend of a longitudinal rising of segregation between 1950 and 1970. The registered high concentration of old people of lower SES in renovation-needy town areas underlines an actual important problem of town-planning politics.
