Municipalities of Mexico

Municipalities in Mexico are the smallest administrative units, similar to local government districts. Each municipality has its own government responsible for public services like policing, water, roads, and local regulations. They vary greatly in size and population, from small towns to large cities. Municipalities are part of the state structure, operating under federal laws but managing local affairs independently to address community needs effectively. They play a key role in governance, development, and service delivery at the community level across Mexico.
