This research article analyzes the indicators of competitiveness and sustainability of oil cities such as Coatzacoalcos, Minatitlan, Salamanca, Tehuantepec-Salina Cruz and Tula. This analysis includes their respective positions at a national level and a comparative exercise between them. This work is justified primarily by the significant contribution that these cities historically have had in the local and regional economy, and in Mexico in general. On the other hand, it is justified by the severe crisis experienced since 2015 following the collapse of the international price of oil. Likewise, the paper explores some of the variables that explain the competitiveness levels registered in these cities and some of the possibilities that, in matters of public policy, are available to address the major challenges they face in these moments. En la presente investigación se realiza un análisis de los indicadores de competitividad y sustentabilidad de las ciudades petroleras de Coatzacoalcos, Minatitlán, Salamanca, Tehuantepec-Salina Cruz y Tula, el cual comprende su posición a nivel nacional y un ejercicio comparativo entre ellas. Este trabajo se justifica primeramente por el significativo aporte que históricamente han tenido estas urbes en la economía local, regional y en general de México, y, por otra parte, por la severa crisis que experimentan desde 2015 a raíz del desplome de los precios internacionales del petróleo. Asimismo, se exploran algunas de las variables que permiten explicar los niveles de competitividad registrados en estas ciudades y algunas de las posibilidades que, en materia de política pública, disponen para atender los importantes retos que enfrentan en estos momentos.
