Abstract

Segregation becomes important due to the process of urban and demographic transition. Research about segregation in Latin American region and México has focused on income and social class and those have done in large cities particularity. These studies have overlooked small and middle- sized cities The paper aims to analyze the spatial segregation pattern in Tarímbaro, using changes in the population´s attributes due to urban expansion and internal territorial processes. Segregation was measured through indices for each personal attribute, in three moments (1990, 2000, 2010). The main conclusion is that segregation is coproduced by internal and external dynamics of the territories, changing the pattern of segregation in three ways: evenness of traditional localities, concentration of indigenous and consolidation the homogeneous area of newly population, everyone’s with inequal conditions.
