The district of Trujillo faces a public health issue due to the emergence of critical points of solid waste accumulation, which increases the risk of disease transmission, degrades the urban environment, and negatively affects the population’s perception of safety and well-being. The objective of this study is to analyze the spatial patterns of critical point generation in Trujillo and their relationship with socio-environmental factors that may explain their distribution. A quantitative approach was employed, specifically a descriptive-correlational, non-experimental design, combining remote sensing techniques, spatial analysis through Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and fieldwork based on household surveys. The study targeted residents over 18 years of age in the district of Trujillo, whose households were located within a 30-meter radius of the identified critical points. A to...
