Best Answer

The area of Mexico is 1,958,200 square kilometers or 761,606 square miles.

Mexico is the 15th largest country in the world. It is also roughly three times the size of Texas, the approximate size of Alaska, or one fifth of the total United States land size. On a more "international scale", Mexico is roughly the same size of Spain, the United Kingdom, France, Italy and Germany put together.

While Mexico has a land area of 1,972,550 square kilometers (761,606 sq mi), the United States has some 9,826,675 square kilometers (3,794,101 sq mi) of area. This means roughly five countries the size of Mexico would neatly fit inside the United States.

Another way of looking at such size difference is that Mexico is roughly three times the size of Texas, or a bit larger than Alaska.

East-West distance (width): 3561.66 kilometers (2213.12 miles)

These distances were calculated using the extreme points in Mexico, such as the northernmost vs. southernmost.

Considering Mexico has a very irregular shape that looks like a cornucopia, the best way to measure such distance would be to try to fit the country within an imaginary rectangle.

Its westernmost corner -- within the mainland -- would be close to Tijuana, bordering the city of San Diego, California (32.533333°, -117.083333°), while its easternmost point would be the city of Cancun, on the Caribbean Sea (21.133333°, -86.733333°). Distance between these two points (only on the horizontal) would be 3,146 kilometers (1,955 miles).
