The case of Los Heroes gated community in Puebla, México Recuperación del espacio público para la reducción de la percepción de inseguridad: el caso del fraccionamiento Los Héroes en Puebla, México Bautista Ramírez, Juan Manuel Flores Lucero, María de Lourdes Guevara Romero, María Lourdes The bad conditions of public space in gated communities have had an impact on the increase of crime, as well as on the perception of insecurity, in cities such as Puebla. Particularly in the Fraccionamiento Los Héroes, located southeast of said city, it has been observed that the lack of maintenance and continuous deterioration of its public spaces have influenced the loss of social activity and the creation of optimal conditions to commit crimes, so that in 2011 has been cataloged by the authorities among the ten most insecure. Through qualitative information obtained by direct observation, surveys and key actors interviews, in a period of 16 months (October 2015 to February 2017) of field work, we sought to know and change the conditions of use of public space, especially in two of the six parks, the 119 and the guardería, to reduce the perception of insecurity through articulated work and co-responsible between the public and social sectors. The change achieved in the physical conditions of one of the parks allowed to demonstrate that the work led by young people, with ecological purposes, managed to modify the perception of insecurity and that the neighbors returned to make use of the place. Las malas condiciones del espacio público en fraccionamientos cerrados en México han incidido en el aumento de la delincuencia, así como de la percepción de inseguridad. Particularmente en el Fraccionamiento Los Héroes, ubicado al sureste de la ciudad de Puebla, se ha observado que la falta de mantenimiento y deterioro continuo de sus espacios públicos han influido en la pérdida de actividad social y en la creación de condiciones óptimas para delinquir, de manera que en 2011 ha sido catalogado por las autoridades locales entre los diez más inseguros. A través de información cualitativa obtenida por observación directa, encuestas y entrevistas a actores clave, en un periodo de 16 meses de trabajo de campo (octubre 2015 a febrero 2017), se buscó conocer y cambiar las condiciones de uso de espacio público, particularmente en dos de los seis parques existentes, el de la 119 y el de la guardería, para disminuir la percepción de inseguridad a través del trabajo articulado y corresponsable entre el sector público y social. El cambio logrado en las condiciones físicas de uno de los parques posibilitó demostrar que el trabajo liderado por jóvenes, con fines ecológicos, permitió modificar la percepción de inseguridad y que los vecinos volvieran a hacer uso del lugar.
