It is evident that urban space, whether called city or metropolis, represents a very important location attraction for the generality of the population, particularly the non-urban population, it is also a place where satisfactors symbolize equipment, infrastructural systems, employment, social security, urbanized space for housing, and others; they are a visual promise, perhaps a chimerical feeling, an illusion without content; since the hope of obtaining these urban satisfiers is not for everyone, it is only the mirage of the urban. This work addresses a theme that delves into the intervening variables involved in the process of territorial expansiveness, those urban spatialities with metropolitan characteristics in this liquid overmodernity that we have to live; exploring fundamental aspects of urban space that range from the conceptualization of public policies involved in the government agenda to the planning model and its spatial applicability
