摘要：

Since the beginning of the 20th century, and even before, world cities have been decentralizing. With some lag with respect to European and US metropolises, Latin-American capital cities are as well decentralizing. The Metropolitan Area of the Valley of Mexico (MAmv) is no exception. This research focuses on the possible effects of changes in the location of the population and employment on commuting distance between 2000 and 2010. Decentralization of the population and employment has improved workers' accessibility to total employment in the region. If the distance between population and total employment has shortened, this could lead to a reduction in commuting trip distances. Contrary to results obtained in other research applied to the MAmv, we find that workers' accessibility to total employment has shortened and that this has led to a decrease in commuting trip distances.
