About this listen

 In recent years, Mexico City has become a hotspot for digital nomads, remote workers, and expats—especially from the United States. But beneath the vibrant street life and trendy neighborhoods, a silent crisis is unfolding: the displacement of local residents due to rising rents and rapid gentrification. In this episode, we explore what gentrification looks like in Mexico City through the eyes of locals, urban activists, and researchers. Why are people protesting? How is tourism and platforms like Airbnb affecting the cost of living? And what can visitors and newcomers do to be more respectful and informed? Whether you're thinking about moving to CDMX or just curious about the changes happening in one of Latin America's biggest cities, this episode will give you a deeper understanding of the social dynamics behind the beautiful facades.
