This research contributes to the analysis of Local Production Systems (LPS), particularly in the case of cultural and creative industries in the state of Baja California, Mexico. As a pioneering work, it presents an approach for the study of employment and its distribution across the state, and examines the distribution of personnel employed in the aforementioned industries using regional analysis techniques. Using data from the 2014 INEGI Economic Census, employment was analyzed in the state's five municipalities. The variable used was total employed personnel, and quotients and coefficients were calculated for location, specialization and territorial concentration. The results show dispersed employment in the cultural and creative industries throughout the state's territory, according to the characteristics of each municipality.

Keywords : Baja California; employment distribution; cultural and creative industries; regional economy; municipalities.
