The Mexican capital appears in the pictures as an endless canvas of houses, covering the ground to the horizon.
Mexico City is the most populous city in the Western Hemisphere, and the outskirts of the city continue to spread outward. Now, according to official data alone, more than 20 million people live there, and the population density is 25.4 thousand people per square mile, or 9.8 thousand people per square kilometer, which is twice the population density of Moscow.
