Abstract
In this work we compare the evolution of the monthly living expenses in two Ecuadorian cities, Ambato and Manta, after the earthquake of April 2016 and how this natural disaster has made the expenses of both cities radically different, due to the circumstances of the neighbors of one and another city. For this, a comparison was made between the evolution of both indicators from the date of the earthquake. The results confirm the incidence of this type of phenomena in local economies in the short and long run growth.
