El presente trabajo muestra la diferenciación socio-espacial existente, en los municipios centrales de la zona metropolitana de Pachuca con datos del Censo de Población 2010 a nivel AGEB1. El estudio muestra una visión general de las consecuencias del proceso de expansión en las zonas periféricas de la conurbación existente entre Pachuca y Mineral de la Reforma. La diferenciación espacial realizada mediante la construcción de un indicador de sostenibilidad urbana, permitió la localización de sectores populares y periféricos dentro de la mancha urbana que se caracterizan por encontrarse en situación de baja sostenibilidad al contar condiciones precarias de acceso a bienes y servicios urbanos.
In this research work, a multidimensional index is generated that allows measuring the vulnerability to disasters of precarious housing in the localities of the municipalities of Huehuetla, Tenango de Doria, San Bartolo, Acaxochitlán and Agua Blanca, Hidalgo, México. The Social Residential Vulnerability Index (IVRS) considers variables such as access to basic housing services and goods, home overcrowding, and precarious construction materials. Based on information from the 2020 Census, disaggregated by locality; the IVRS is estimated, which allows locating areas with higher levels of vulnerability due to housing infrastructure and that become priority areas to reduce inequalities within the state of Hidalgo. The IVRS is constructed from Kaztman's (2000). Vulnerability asset framework. Vulnerability is a multidimensional phenomenon shaped by physical and social factors; both are linked since one can be a trigger for the other. Physical factors are related to the quality of the buildings in which they live, while social factors are related to the conditions of the population, which, in this case, are overcrowding, and access to goods and information technologies. Of the 341 localities that make up the study area, 40% are grouped into sectors of high social residential vulnerability.
Introduction: The ongoing global pandemic due to the COVID-19 virus has had varying impacts on the quality of life in different regions. This article aims to identify areas of high social vulnerability in the municipalities in Hidalgo with information gathered in 2015.
Methodology: The social vulnerability index was calculated by using the principal component analysis technique along with geographic information systems to evaluate its relationship with COVID-19 fatality ratio. Variables were constructed based on information taken from the 2015 Intercensal Survey for municipalities.
Results: Two regions, one in the northeast and the other in the southwest of the state of Hidalgo, showed a strong relationship between social vulnerability and the fatality ratio.
Conclusions: The variables that best explain social vulnerability in the Municipalities in Hidalgo are those that contemplate population characteristics. The findings could be used in planning social actions so that they not only focus on health care services in order to reduce the impacts of the current pandemic and reduce mortality due to COVID-19 in the most vulnerable sectors in Municipalities in Hidalgo.
Este libro coordinado, parte de un proyecto de investigación de largo alcance, basado en la investigación básica y aplicada enfocada a aportar elementosde análisis y reflexión para la solución de los problemas urbanos en México, así como proponer modelos de desarrollo urbano sustentable considerandola brecha tecnológica y la economía del conocimiento, propuesto dentro de la Red Multidisciplinaria de Investigación en Innovación y Desarrollo Urbano Sustentable (Redmiidus).En esta primera etapa se trató de integrar un estudio de realidades y retos actuales de distintos aspectos urbanos, tales como problemas de transporte, movilidad, construcción excesiva de viviendas y sus efectos en el cambio deuso de suelo, limitantes de la democracia participativa, vulnerabilidad, salud, segundas residencias, observando que existen dos elementos en común que requieren atención: por un lado, la gestión pública y en segundo lugar la sus-tentabilidad. Se presenta un trabajo que da pie a la discusión y a la búsqueda de respuestas que logre aminorar los efectos negativos de las ciudades, no sóloen la población humana, sino también en los ecosistemas y el medio ambiente.
