I’m very interested in moving to Mexico City part time. Can you list some nice neighborhoods and their characteristics? Or point me to somewhere on the web with this information? Thanks in advance!

Hipodromo, La Condesa, Roma, & Roma Norte are in the center of town and all very nice, tons of places to get food & go out and shop and anything you would want. Most parts are quite pretty by US standards for a city...

Coyoacán is VERY beautiful, but there's not as much to do over there for an expat. It's still really nice.

Most expats stay in Roma Norte or Condesa. Polanco Is also safe as well a Coyoacán but not many expats stay/live in these areas.

Condesa is considered the more Hipstery part of the city, nightlife and everything.

Polanco is more of an upscale, very international type of vibe.

Roma Norte is more artsy imo but similar to Condesa as well. Plenty of good food as well.

Coyoacán is more traditional Mexican.
