          Abstract

          Resumen Este estudio explora la evolución de la estructura urbana del Área Metropolitana de Guadalajara (AMG) entre 1999 y 2019. A través de un análisis de doble umbral se identifican nueve subcentros de empleo en 1999 y 14 en 2019, y se analiza su tamaño, estructura espacial y especialización económica. El cálculo de un índice de primacía demuestra que el AMG tiende hacia el monocentrismo. Si bien el AMG ha logrado la aparición de nuevos subcentros de empleo, éstos se agrupan en el espacio para conformar lo que se podría denominar “la gran aglomeración central del AMG”. Por último, se discuten las implicaciones del estudio para la accesibilidad a los empleos en el AMG.

          Abstract This study explores the evolution of Guadalajara Metropolitan Area (GMA) urban structure between 1999 and 2019. By conducting an analysis of density and total employment at the census tract level, the study identifies nine subcenters of employment in 1999 and 14 in 2019, and their size, spatial structure, and economic specialization is analyzed. A primacy index shows that the GMA is transitioning towards a monocentric urban form. Although the GMA is achieving to create new employment subcenters, these clusters in urban space to form what can be called “the great central agglomeration of the GMA”. Finally, the paper discusses the implications of the study for employment accessibility in GMA.
