Summary
Declaring the Historic Centre of Oaxaca as a UNESCO World Heritage Site has catalyzed significant urban transformations, reshaping local habitation patterns and spatial dynamics. The study identifies key variables—such as architectural preservation, tourism influx, and public space reconfiguration—that have altered the city's fabric since its 1987 designation. While the heritage status has spurred conservation efforts, challenges remain in balancing authenticity with modern urban demands. Recommendations for sustainable development, including enhanced infrastructure and community engagement, are proposed to further optimize the site's cultural and social value.
