Soil quality and climate are the main factors for such high population density. Central Mexico has a high altitude above sea level (around 2000 meters or 6500 ft), allowing a temperate climate unlike the scorching deserts to the north, or the suffocating tropical rain-forests to the south.

Also, central Mexico's altitude is the result of strong volcanic activity, resulting in rich topsoil that allows higher agricultural yields and in turn, bigger populations.

Why is central Mexico important to Mexico?

Due to volcanic activity, central Mexico is dominated by the Mexican central plateau, which besides its fertile soil, has a temperate climate -- unlike the scorching deserts to the north or the suffocating jungles on the coast. This has allowed a higher population density and more development along the region. Some of the largest cities in Mexico, such as Mexico City, Puebla, Queretaro or Guanajuato are located in Central Mexico.
