In Mexico, 70% of its inhabitants live in a city, and the expansion of the urban sprawl is mainly due to housing use. Hence, the importance of reviewing government housing policies, particularly the so-called social interest housing, meaning, built through government intervention in the granting of financing. The objective is to show that factors inherent to the efficient use of energy have been privileged through the incorporation of eco-technologies, and relegated to a second-place urban aspect such as mobility, services and equipment. For this reason, it is urgent to strengthen housing policy with urban indicators that allow the creation of a synergy in which housing construction contributes to the urban sustainability of Mexican cities.

Palavras-chave : city; housing; public policy; sustainable urbanism; urban planning; urban sprawl.
