Logics of insertion of the closed residential urbanism in southern Tamaulipas

Abstract

The present article includes the analysis of the logics of insertion of the new closed residential urbanism contained in dispersed fragments on the periphery, and located within the urban reticles in the system of cities conformed by Tampico, Ciudad Madero and Altamira to the south of the state of Tamaulipas, Mexico. For this purpose, the main variables used were localization of the place, the characteristics of the spatial environment and its dimension and morphology, because the location incidence intervenes in the formation of the periphery and the urban fragmentation that prevails today.
