Abstract

Los gobiernos locales gobiernan con el propósito de ofrecer una mejor calidad de vida, de modo que es relevante la focalización del gasto y su capacidad de generar ingresos. Esta investiga-ción utiliza datos de un panel de 93 ciudades chilenas para las cuales se mide la calidad de vida urba-na en el periodo 2012-2016, a fin de evaluar los efectos que tiene la estructura del presupuesto sobre la calidad de vida urbana. Para esto se utiliza un modelo probit ordenado con efectos aleatorios. Los resultados muestran un efecto positivo del gasto municipal, ingresos permanentes e inversión en el ranquin de ciudades con diferencias entre las dimensiones del indicador.******Local governments intend to offer a better quality of life; so, their targeting of spending and ability to generate income are relevant. This research uses data from a panel of 93 Chilean cities evaluated for the effects of budget structure on the quality of urban life between 2012–2016. For this, an ordered probit model with random effects is used. The results show a positive impact of municipal spending, permanent income, and investment on the studied cities with differences among the indicator’s dimensions.******Os governos locais governam com o objetivo de oferecer uma melhor qualidade de vida, portanto é rele-vante o foco da despesa e sua capacidade de gerar ingressos.
