This article offers an overview of the urban conditions in the country’s three leading metropolitan areas at the end of the last century and the beginning of the present one. On the one hand
we consider the changes that have been recorded and the observable trends that structure the internal space of these metropolitan areas. The readjustment they are undergoing is a function of the logic by which these elements operate and the effects it produces on the three cities. Thus
attention is paid to the impact that the internal dynamics of each one of them has separately on the metropolitan area. This impact cuts two ways
it deactivates older ways of operating
and proposes new ones. But aside from these sector-based effects
there are problems or trends that affect the cities and their inhabitants simultaneously. In this case
we analyze the main issues that cut across the metropolitan space in its entirety. In both cases
the basic information comes from recent literature. área metropolitana

problemas y retos transversales del espacio metropolitano
