Between these photos it is possible to visualize the duality of buildings which can be appreciated in the vertical population growth in the north zone of the city and horizontal in the peripheral and south zones of the city In the vertical growth, a smaller area is used for buildings, which takes advantage of the surplus area to implement pedestrian and road equipment, which benefits local commerce. In contrast to horizontal growth, which occupies a larger area, pedestrian and road traffic is lower, affecting trade and a possible effect of increased criminality. That information will help future cities to improve pedestrian and road equipment, which directly improves human comfort. A remarkable difference can be seen in the esthetics and buildings of both sectors due to their location and commercial impact. The southern and peripheries zones where many of the constructions do not comply with the law are developed in an informal way. Unlike the northern zone where the investment in buildings is greater causing an increase in control by the authorities. This information will help future cities to improve building regulations, facilitating the legislative process, reducing the informality of construction.
