We discuss the use and importance of pulsating variable stars as population tracers in Local Group galaxies. Among bright variable crossing the classical instability strip, we mostly focus on RR Lyrae stars and Anomalous Cepheids. We discuss their pulsational properties and how it is possible to use them to constrain the evolution and star formatio...
