We analyze the dynamics of human development in the period 1995-2005 following the ideas of the United Nations (NU) for the Northeast region of Mexico, composed of Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipas. In contrast to the usual, for the increments it is proposed an average exchange rate that is not affected by the law of diminishing returns, the indices used are invariant during the period, as opposed to the un, and we use two indices of development, one related to gender, one to inequity, and one more to quality. Both states have development conditions higher than the national average and gender equity markedly reduced inequality. However worldwide both states show significant lags. Nuevo Leon is the most developed but childhood education has declined. Tamaulipas shows superiority in resource use. The distribution of human development in the region is not fair.

Keywords : human development index; inequality in human development; quality curves.
