Living in Las Américas

Las Américas (Ecatepec de Morelos, 55340) is a sprawling, modern residential development of 260 hectares, built since 2003 by Casas Ara on the former Sosa Texcoco land (the former proposed Texcoco airport site). It features high population density (approximately 3,000 inhabitants/km²) and a young population (average age approximately 28 years, average schooling approximately 12 years). It is bordered by Av. Central Carlos Hank González, Av. 1° de Mayo, Jardines de Morelos (north), and the "El Caracol" solar evaporation pond (east). Living here means controlled access to sub-developments (e.g., Américas V: 68 m² apartments with elevators, eco-friendly technologies, and green areas). It is ideal for working families, close to Plaza Las Américas/Paseo Ventura (cinemas/supermarkets), UAEMéx schools, and Hospital General Las Américas, despite traffic congestion on Av. Central during peak hours.

The daily routine offers access to Mexibús Line 1/2 (Las Américas/1° de Mayo stations), shopping centers (Plaza Aragón ~15 min), multi-purpose courts/jogging track/internal green areas; a thriving economy with added value due to connectivity (Circuito Exterior Mexiquense/Mexico-Pachuca ~25 km from Mexico City), challenges due to traffic/informal commerce, but improved security in gated communities. Perfect if you are looking for affordable housing with full services in the dynamic northeast of Ecatepec.
