This article deals with human development within the Mexican states of Sonora, Baja California and Baja California Sur. Four indexes were estimated: human development with gross domestic product, services, gender, and inequity. In addition, quality curves were calculated for states and municipalities. Although Baja California Sur shows the best results in terms of human development indicators, followed by Sonora, Baja California ranks highest in the country in terms of equity.

Keywords : human development; regional development; gender; inequity; quality of life.
