Abstract
In this article, we analyze the new demographic and real estate dynamics established in the Vidigal slum, Rio de Janeiro, within what we call here the olympic (2007-2016) and post-olympic periods (2016-2018). Based on a systematic probability sample of semi-structured questionnaires administered to 364 households, we analyzed the impacts of this period on the socioeconomic profile of this slum population and on the local real estate market, assessing whether these impacts remained or not after the end of the mega-event period. As a result, we show the formation of a new migration flow towards this slum after its pacification, a flow that shows signs of retraction after the end of the mega-event period.
