TELLO, Carlos Alberto  and  DE JESUS OLIVOS, Benito. Habitabilidad en la Zona Oriental del Centro Histórico de la Ciudad de México. ¿Un área marginal?. Rev. Univ. geogr. [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.2, pp.93-110. ISSN 1852-4265.

Liveability is an important concept in any urban settlement and determines its value as such. Its different levels rule the growth of a city. For that purpose, this growth needs to keep a social, economic, and environmental balance in time and space from the perspective of a more significant possibility of central demographic permanence. The Eastern zone of Mexico City’s historical centre does not keep it.

Using an SPSS3 software, this article established as a research objective the design of a cause-effect regression model to expose the interrelation kept by the variable “housing seniority” proxy of the level of demographic permanence and a set of variables of residential improvement in terms of needs/impedance4 (difficulties). This is to explain the level of liveability that this area currently maintains from the perspective of the resident population.

The results show “type of housing” and “municipal seniority” as the independent variables with the highest explanatory power for the behavior of “housing seniority” dependent variable in the Eastern Zone of the historical centre.

Keywords : México City; Eastern Zone of the Historical Centre; Liveability.
