| Sumario: | The analysis of data provided by the censuses and population counts from 1960 until the year 2010 allows us to confirm that the municipality of Tecpatán has experienced immigration and emigration events. The first of these processes occurred during the second half of last century which coincided with historical events such as the construction of the Netzahualcóyotl Dam, better known as Malpaso Dam, as well as the eruption of the Chichonal volcano, which provoked the settlement of new rural communities. The following population changes happen during this century, probably as part of a late adjustment due to poverty generated by weak economic conditions. This paper is about Tecpatán municipality before its political cleavage in 2011, which led to the settlement of Mezcalapa Municipality, and addresses the migratory processes and events associated to those, as well as the population dispersion that occurred along its territory. |
