Infonavit Norte

Infonavit Norte is a residential neighborhood in Cuautitlán Izcalli Municipality made up of family homes, small shops, and community spaces. The houses are laid out in an organized grid pattern typical of planned worker housing, with green areas and local services that meet everyday needs.

The neighborhood developed in the 1970s as part of a national program to create affordable housing for working families in the region. This settlement was part of a larger effort that helped thousands of families own their own homes.

The name comes from Infonavit, the national workers' housing fund, and this mission is visible in how the neighborhood was built and organized. Residents gather regularly in central areas to shop at local markets and maintain traditions together.

The neighborhood is easily reached by public transportation that connects it to downtown Mexico City and surrounding areas. Visitors should arrive in the morning when local markets are busiest and shops are fully open.

Parks in the neighborhood serve as gathering spots for informal activities and weekly markets where neighbors meet and buy local goods. These spaces show how the original design of the area was meant to encourage community life.
