The interplay of economic complexity and urban sprawl in shaping socio-spatial segregation in Mexico
This study examines the interplay between economic complexity, urban sprawl, and socio-spatial segregation in Mexico's metropolitan areas. Drawing on the urban land nexus framework, we conceptualize how economic structures, and spatial dynamics jointly shape patterns of inequality. Using the Rank-Order Information Theory global index, we quantify income segregation across 74 metropolitan areas and assess its association with economic complexity, …

Income Segregation Analysis in Limited‐Data Contexts
Since the 1950s, researchers in Urban Geography have created multiple instruments for measuring income segregation. However, the computation of such indexes requires the availability of income data and population distribution for small areal units. This approach is problematic for countries and cities where a government's decennial census does not collect or report income data for small‐enough areal units to capture income variability within a ne…
Knowledge based urban development
Education is a concept that encompasses not only the teaching-learning process but also the conditions, environment, and facilities in which it takes place. Education is a precondition to development because it serves as a society’s primary engine of innovation. Therefore, the concept of a space designated as an Innovation District is essential for the creation of Sustainable Cities since it is in such spaces that jobs are created and new markets…
Identifying spatio-temporal hotspots of human activity that are popular non-work destinations
The improved temporal and spatial granularity of data now available from current information technologies offers an opportunity to study previously unexplored dimensions of the relationship between built environment and social outcomes. Within the field of urban studies, an old question worth revisiting with these new technologies is how to best trace the spatial boundaries that circumscribe a place or location to explore non-work activity. In th…
