Resumen
This paper reveals the immigration networks in the configuration of three informal settlements around Río de Oro in the urban sector of the municipality of Girón, Santander (Colombia). The study distinguishes the importance of bearing in mind the socio-natural basis at planning of the city and, at the same time, it shows the need to study the dynamics of migration to high flood risk areas.
