| description | The first part of this work explains that concepts and ideas around the classification of cities as medium are relative. The text establishes the relationship between medium size cities and the principal city in a country. It also perceives the attraction of residents of the latter to the former as a political motive to justifiy why governments should grant them more attention.In the second part, the document underlines the geographic advantajes of cities in the central part or northern Mexico. It suggests that U.S. senior citizens represent a potential market as they have a growing purchasing power, and the region, the paper adds, could capture a section of this market. This would increase employment and offer opportunities for investors as well as for Mexican federal, state and local governments in the area.This work stresses the need for studies that cross disciplinary boundaries and use knowledge to solve problems that currently affect regional societies. |

The text establishes the relationship between medium size cities and the principal city in a country. It also perceives the attraction of residents of the latter to the former as a political motive to justifiy why governments should grant them more attention.In the second part, the document underlines the geographic advantajes of cities in the central part or northern Mexico. It suggests that U.S. senior citizens represent a potential market as they have a growing purchasing power, and the region, the paper adds, could capture a section of this market. This would increase employment and offer opportunities for investors as well as for Mexican federal, state and local governments in the area.This work stresses the need for studies that cross disciplinary boundaries and use knowledge to solve problems that currently affect regional societies. En este trabajo se descarta, primero, el concepto y las ideas en torno a la clasificación de las ciudades como medianas. Se establece la relación de éstas con la ciudad principal y se estima la atracción de residentes de esta última hacia las primeras como una razón de política para justificar la atención que el gobierno deberá otorgarles.En la segunda parte del trabajo, y considerando las ventajas de localización que ofrecen las ciudades de la parte centro del norte de México se hace una propuesta para captar un segmento del mercado de consumo y del gasto disponible del grupo de población de la tercera edad en Estados Unidos, que es uno de los que experimenta un mayor crecimiento absoluto y relativo y las implicaciones que esto tendría para la fuerza de trabajo, los inversionistas y los gobiernos federal, estatal y local de esta región.El argumento que subyace en todo el trabajo es el de la cada vez mayor necesidad de oportunidades para cruzar barreras disciplinarias y poder aplicar los conocimientos en la resolución de problemas que afectan en la actualidad a las sociedades regionales.
