Conclusions
In the last 25 years there has been a
gradual formation of urban subcenters
with a “concentrated deconcentration” in
compact subcenters and corridors.
However this structure is highly restricted:
it is relevant for the city center, 1st and
2nd rings. But in the 3rd and 4th rings the
presence of these subcenters is almost
unexistant.
The central city is still the largest
concentration of employment (46%)
despite the loss of resident population.
The central city shows a proliferation of
subcenters leading to spatial widening of the
concentration of activities with larger
subcenters.
The city centrality of employment has
experienced a displacement towards the
western and southern zones, with larger areas
in each subcenter.
The lack of important peripheral economic
concentrations shows a lack of balance and equity
in the distribution of jobs for the poorer
neighborhoods to the northern and eastern areas.
