Migración interna en México. Un análisis al estudio regional en Los Cabos, B.C.S. (2021)

Abstract

This article seeks to contribute to the understanding of the Mexican pattern of internal migration, which has contributed to large-scale urban concentration, based on the statistical and interpretative analysis of the Population and Housing Census, prepared by the National Institute of Geography and Statistics (INEGI) in 2021. It is identified that there are both economic (employment/wages) and social (family reunification or quality of life) decisions, among other considerations in the decisions to migrate, ranging from the individual to the family, as well as the reception of the place of destination. The tourist city of Los Cabos, Baja California, located in the northwestern part of the country, has been selected because it has the second highest index of recent and accumulated attraction events, highlighting that this region is propitious for the events that converge in the attraction of new labor dynamics that are juxtaposed in the different labor segments, as well as the existence of a lifestyle for a differentiated and high-income sector.
