In order to find a solution to the increase in the population in urban areas, new urban models such as micro cities and mixed-use developments have been introduced.

Due to population growth and mobility, both in Mexico and in other Central American cities, this type of development will become more relevant as solution options.

In the vision of the architect Martín Gómez Platero, between the benefits of mixed-use developments and the planning of micro cities, these are tools that help create healthy and connected communities.

Through a statement, he pointed out that "in the coming years we will see great changes in cities and also new urban models that will allow these transformations to materialize."

Mixed-use slows urban sprawl, reduces dependence on motorized vehicles, encourages walking and cycling, reduces carbon emissions and, in some cases, promotes efficiency through district systems, he noted.

He added that “micro cities also provide a shared community space. Squares, parks and sidewalks encourage interaction among community members and, therefore, create healthier communities ”, highlighted the Founder and Director of Gómez Platero Arquitectura & Urbanismo.
