Mexico City has barely grown in decades. It's actually very similar to NYC and LA in that it gets tons of domestic outmigration to cheaper, fast-growing metros within a day's drive. Booming places like Queretaro and Irapuato are basically the Raleigh and Nashville of Mexico (cheap, attractive, sprawl cities).
The future is going to be interesting. We're all used to ever growing populations and with that ever growing consumption patterns, however, this won't continue and the big reset is hovering.
