As a result of [...] now having access... upper class visitors began frequenting [...] Explanation: The text is referring to the period in the mid 1900's where the lower and middle classes were able to visit the area due to new infrastructure and other government policies. You could also just use "the rich" or "the wealthy," but "visitors/tourists" is implied by the text. |

peer agreement (net): +1Given the access of the lower classes to Mar de Plata, the wealthy began to migrate toward Pinamar. Explanation: If I understand this passage correctly, this is about the Argentinian wealthy not wanting to share the beach with their economic inferiors. Thus, something that gave new "access" to the beach for those otherwise excluded led the wealthy to move out. The word "migrar" is particularly poignant here in that it captures that notion of a mass and almost instinctive movement by the group, similar to the way birds migrate south in the Winter (or, I imagine, north if one happens to be in Argentina). |
