⚠️Anti-gentrification protest is expected to take place on Saturday July 26 2:00p

This particular protest will probably be more violent since it's in the areas mostly visited by foreigners (who are the subject of this protest).

______________________________
July 25, 2025

Location: CDMX Between Juarez Hemicycle (Monument) and the U.S. Embassy Mexico City



Event: Anti-gentrification demonstrations are expected to take place on Saturday, July 26 starting at 2:00 p.m. Previous demonstrations occurred in the Roma and Condesa neighborhoods on July 4 and the Tlalpan neighborhood on July 20. Some in those groups vandalized property and threw rocks at people perceived to be foreigners. U.S. government personnel are advised to avoid the demonstration area. U.S. citizens should avoid participating in demonstrations that may be deemed political by authorities, as Mexican law prohibits political activities by foreign citizens, and participation may result in detention or deportation. Expect traffic congestion, enhanced police presence, and increased security measures in the area.



Actions to Take:
  • Demonstrations can be unpredictable; avoid areas around protests and demonstrations.
  • Monitor local media for updates.
  • Follow the directions of local authorities and in case of emergency, call 911.
