Sumario:The urban individuality is a new big problem that arises in the city today is. This trend is reflected by the recent preference for new types of housing, also, bounded by physical barriers and inhabited by relatively homogeneous groups. These are the areas referred to as “gated communities” which have become an important issue for understanding the phenomenon of the city. In Bogota, a similar phenomenon occurs, however, the article presented below is not just studying them. In a broader sense, seeks to delve into the socio-spatial problems of the urban phenomenon through  the analysis of misuse of the enclosure. This practice is contrasted with the development of public space in Bogotá in the past three decades. The general approach to analyze this tension poses real  and symbolic. Finally it should be noted the recurrence of the complaints as the unit of quantitative measurement that allows comparison processes at the social and spatial. This method may provide  a useful mechanism for understanding this and  ther urban areas.
