Abstract

Este artículo denota la heterogeneidad de las causales más citadas que explican el fenómeno de la informalidad en las zonas metropolitanas de México. Mediante el análisis de microdatos del Módulo de Condiciones Socioeconómicas 2016 y modelos dicotómicos tipo Logit, se observa que las causales más comunes para explicar la informalidad influyen de manera distinta en cada zona metropolitana del país. Analizar la informalidad por zonas metropolitanas permite compren¬der mejor sus causas, lo cual ayudará al diseno de políticas públicas estatales y federales para combatir la problemática en el futuro.
