Abstract In 2007, the state government of Chiapas, Mexico installed the Sustainable Rural Cities Project, which proposed the resettlement of the population of Ostuacán and Santiago El Pinar in centers with infrastructure, basic services and housing. However, the inhabitants responded differentially to the program. This article analyzes the ways the inhabitants acted and the factors that justify such behavior. The analysis is based on daily life, understood as the social construction of a territory; information was collected from interviews, on-site observations and document analysis. The results indicate the direct relationship between responses to a government proposal and the daily practices of the inhabitants of a territory.

Palabras clave : daily practices; resettlement; social relationships; inhabitants' responses; lifestyle.
