Mass relocation of 460 families in western Mexico City
Authorities moved hundreds of families from the Tlayacapa neighborhood as land was purchased by Poniente Santa Fe. Compensation ranged from 3000 to 5000 dollars per family, while about 40 resisted relocation. Moving trucks were provided for willing relocations. Residents noted they struggle with the peso as deals are often negotiated in dollars. The Alvaro Obregon borough spokesman, Jose Manuel Hernandez, spoke on the operation.
