Abstract

The Metropolitan Area of Pachuca (MAP) is located very close to the Metropolitan Zone of the Valley of Mexico (ZMVM), which occupies a space of 7954 km² divided in 76 municipalities, with a population close to 20 million people, according to with official estimates, in fact the projections within a period of no more than 10 years, say the ZMVM will become a metacity with Metropolitan Area of Pachuca, Toluca, Puebla and Morelos. Metropolitan Area of Pachuca comprises seven municipalities, in an extension of 120 km² and has a population of 512,196 inhabitants according to the Census of Population and Housing 2010. Urban environmental problems originated from population and housing growth, have increased in the sense of citizens, however, there are no indicators or an urban observatory, which allows a timely, updated and frequent diagnosis, and with it, to carry out public policies aimed at solving said problems. The present article proposes a series of environmental urban indicators, considering the indicators proposed by the Habitat Sedesol program, Sustainable Development Indicators, Sustainable Seattle Indicators, Indicators of the Global Urban Observatory, among others, but adapting them to the conditions of the MAP.
