As part of the process to support decision making in population problems, with the aim of promoting the selection of projects with funding support for the sector of the economically inactive population, in this paper a custom multi-objective method was applied to produce a set of efficient solutions that correspond to the selection of the best grouping of geographical zones to attend those population sectors without economic activity. Each answer is a partition of geographic zones that meet geometric compactness and homogeneity in terms of the population descriptors of the economically inactive population. This work presents the basic theoretical aspects of the multi-objective methodology and an outline of a mechanism to analyze their relevance to support the selection of economic projects in the case of the Metropolitan Zone of the Toluca Valley (ZMVT), considering census socioeconomic data for AGEBs (Basic Geostatistical Areas).
