We explore the quality of life in the Metropolitan District of Quito (MDQ) by calculating a multidimensional index to the 65 parishes of the MDQ. The index synthetizes determinants of the social division of space, particularly dimensions related to household conditions, access to services, economy, social rights and environmental conditions. The index was calculated by a weighted linear aggregation of indicators. The weights were calculated using principal component analysis. The results obtained support the understanding of the conditions of the social division of the space and to establish a typology of social-territorial areas that coexist in the MDQ. Our work aims to contribute to the perspective of the right to the city and the right to the territory.
