Relatively so. Mexico City is part of Mexico, a federal presidential representative republic, akin to the United States.
Mexico City itself has a local government, which is elected by the Mexico City voters, but has a great deal of dependence from the federal government. It is stable in the sense that it follows general democratic principles; however, considering Mexico City is a huge megalopolis of 21.2 million inhabitants, it still has weak institutions that can be corrupted or work inefficiently.

Internal turmoilForeign threatsLack of monetary resources
After its war of independence against Spain (1810 - 1821) Mexico was essentially broke. Also many conservative and liberal interests played a role, as internal turmoil prevented any stable government to flourish.
Mexico is economy and politicaly stable
Right now Mexico's economy has fallen victim to the world economic slump that has affected most countries. Also, because of the swine flu scare of early April-May of this year, Mexico City (the country's most important city, with nearly 30% of the GDP share) was shut down for nearly a month.However, the economy has been more or less stable than most Latin American nations.
It is the capital of Mexico, and as such, all branches of government have their seats located there.
