The social capital as an intangible resource, considered an incident factor for the development of the current society. Bogota in recent years has presented an improvement in their indicators in relation to some social factors of coverage and decrease in poverty, not having the same behavior in inequality and social capital and civic life. In theory, this progress should be reflected in a better quality of life more equitable reflected in the whole population, but unfortunately the reality is far from the theory, and it is observed within the majority of the twenty localities that make up the city of Bogotá, D.C. that still many households are in conditions of poverty and the possibilities to overcome it are becoming more scarce, also almost non-existent in some households civic participation and interest in the public. Under the exposed conditions, the central object of this work is to identify whether there is a type of relationship between the two fields, social capital and human development in the endogenous city context. To this end, a descriptive investigation is proposed based on multiple regression analysis that facilitates the proposal of a model, which determines the level of incidence of the social capital in the human development.
