Abstract

The author finds it difficult to justify that a resident in a large municipality should get more from his tax outlay than his peer living in a smaller one as he does that the municipal weight of any given person should be subject to variation over time and that the legal nature of being within the municipal scope should be so subject to variations and contrasts be these in terms of circumstances or brute time and all of which stem from questions turning upon population as such. As the author sees it, neither the type of municipality, its potential, growth tendency nor planning idiosyncrasy could be said to have any bearing on the matter. He thus proposes a stratification of municipalities in terms of seven common denominators as is done in the Valencian Autonomous Community, the method there being used, that of «Principal Components», being here seen as extensible to all kinds of territorial units be these districts, city blocks or even metropolitan areas.
