description For almost 100 years ago, many authors have understood that cities are the most complex artifacts built by humans. The very idea of the city is coeval at the beginning of sedentary life and agriculture, in the early Neolithic period about 10,000 years ago.

In this article, we will try to make an approach to the state of the town of Malaga from the perspective of the theory of complex systems.
