Ciudad Satélite
Living in Ciudad Satélite
Ciudad Satélite is an iconic residential development for upper-middle and upper-class residents, designed in the 1950s by architects Mario Pani and José Luis Cuevas as a "city outside the city." Located 20 km northwest of downtown Mexico City, its iconic Satellite Towers serve as a central landmark.
Its privileged lifestyle revolves around traffic-free roads, exclusive areas such as Circuito de Satélite, Echegaray, and La Florida, shopping centers (Satellite Towers, Plaza Satélite), Parque Naucalli with its skating rink and green spaces, and quick access via Periférico Norte, Lomas Verdes, and Viaducto Bicentenario. It is ideal for professional families, close to corporate offices and international schools.
The quality of life is characterized by high safety, sustained appreciation in property values, and moderate density (438 inhabitants/km², approximately 10,600 residents in 241 hectares), with 380 businesses/hotels employing 1,004 people and an average of 14 years of schooling. In 2026, it maintains its premium status despite being a conurbation, with high rents and sales reflecting its role as the economic hub of the northwestern metropolitan area, attracting family investment due to its proximity to Naucalpan and Atizapán.
