Además, parte de los cálculos de rentabilidad privada de la educación para la región Mar de Cortés la ubican alrededor del 10%, los rendimientos asociados a los estudios de posgrado son mayores que cualquier otro nivel educativo. Por otro lado, se perfila un patrón territorial claramente definido en el que las ciudades fronterizas con mayor desarrollo relativo como Tijuana y Mexicali perciben mayores ingresos en contraste a los individuos que radican en zonas con menor desarrollo relativo.]]></p></abstract>

Moreover, private profitability calculations for the Mar de Cortés region locate it around 10%, yield associated to postgraduate studies are higher than any other education level. On the other hand, a clearly defined territorial pattern is provided in which borderline cities such as Tijuana and Mexican register higher income as compared to individuals who live in regions with lower relative development.]]></p></abstract>
