description Abstract This paper sought to estimate the relationship between tourism efficiency and poverty levels in municipalities monitored by the Federal Tourism Secretariat in Mexico. To calculate technical efficiency, tourism supply variables such as the number of available hotel rooms and demand variables such as the number of rooms occupied, the number of tourists and the average stay will be used through the analysis of the data envelope. Afterwards, a regression analysis was generated between tourism efficiency and income poverty levels reported by the National Evaluation Council (CONEVAL). The results show that the most efficient municipalities are Puerto Vallarta, El Fuerte and Bahía de Banderas. The least efficient are Playas de Rosarito, Tequisquiapan and Palenque. Regarding poverty and tourism efficiency, no relationship was found within the range of data analyzed. Keywords: Tourism, poverty, inequality, DEA, Mexico. JEL codes: C14 Received: 15/01/2021. Accepted: 25/07/2021. Published: 01/12/2021.

El presente estudio buscó estimar la relación entre eficiencia turística y los niveles de pobreza en municipios monitoreados por la Secretaría de Turismo Federal en México. Para calcular la eficiencia técnica se utilizaron variables de oferta turística, como el número de cuartos de hotel disponibles, y variables de demanda como el número de cuartos ocupados, el número de turistas y la estancia promedio a través del análisis de la envolvente de datos. Después se generó un análisis de regresión entre la eficiencia turística y los niveles de pobreza por ingreso reportados por el Consejo Nacional de Evaluación (CONEVAL). Los resultados muestran que los municipios más eficientes son Puerto Vallarta, El Fuerte y Bahía de Banderas. Los menos eficientes son Playas de Rosarito, Tequisquiapan y Palenque. Con relación a la pobreza y la eficiencia turística no se encontró relación alguna dentro del rango de datos analizados.
