Structural Transformation of the Geodemographic Load in Residential Areas with Apartment Buildings during the Transition Period. Case Study: Târgu Jiu. During the transition period, residential areas with apartment buildings have undergone major transformations even if they were more discreet under the camouflage of the egalitarian and uniform stock of buildings in the communist period. This paper presents the results of a detailed investigation conducted in the residential areas with apartment buildings in the case of Târgu Jiu, aiming at surprising the structural transformation suffered by the demographic load of these buildings. On a representative sample of apartment block buildings, the structural attributes (household structure, age, education level, occupation) have been reconstructed at the level of each household belonging to a randomly chosen staircase, both in 1990 and in 2007, analyzing the initial origin of the residents in the building, the mobility of apartments during the transition period and the directions of subsequent mobility in the building. Results showed, in addition to a series of transformations amending the central structural trends and the mobility, at a general level, the homogenization trend of social status on high levels with the elimination of the lower hierarchy through a mobility from the apartment building, in the case of central and ultra-central zones, homogenization on a lower level than in the Communist period, in the case of the apartment buildings situated in semi-central area and of the ones with average value on the real estate market, and the heterogeneity of the status, respectively, predominantly with the spreading towards higher levels of the status, in the case of demographic load of the apartment buildings situated in the residential areas of the working class with low socio-economic status.
