Study for the provision of urban equipment and public works in the City of Chihuahua, Chih.

Abstract

Objective: Identify the basic geostatistical areas (AGEBS) that until 2019 are classified as priority attention areas, and carry out an analysis on the lack of equipment and assess indicators for monitoring the sustainable development of the municipality of Chihuahua in the urban environment.Design/methodology/approach: The methodology used was analytical-synthetic, bibliographic techniques and statistics to study the levels that are reflected at national and municipal level, as well as the indicators of areas with social backwardness, to contribute with proposals for the improvement  of these areas. Results: In the city of Chihuahua, Chih., marginalization levels were diagnosed, so it was detected that 3% of the city's population lives in areas where equipment is scarce or null, and this favors the low development of inhabitants found in these areas of the city.Limitations on study/implications: The distances that the different types of equipment have in the city were determined, and access to the different types of equipment that are considered as the most basic, such as education and health, remain within less accessible distances.Findings/conclusions: Present the compact, connected and close city model, densifying the main sub-centers of the city and optimizing the resources required for the provision, of either services or the infrastructure necessary for the provision of urban equipment, to prevent the city from continuing to grow disproportionately.
