Towns and cities on the Mexican Altiplano, as well as those found along the Sierra Madre mountain ranges bellow the 1,000 meter mark (3,300 feet) have relatively constant, pleasant temperatures throughout the year between 16°C (61°F) and 20°C (68°F); the most common climate is subtropical highland. On the other hand, more northerly locations experience sizable seasonal variations. Above 2,000 meters (6,600 feet), temperatures drop as low as an average yearly range between 8°C (47°F) and 12°C (54°F). Parts of the northern Altiplano and high peaks in the Sierra Madre Occidental and the Sierra Madre Oriental occasionally receive significant snowfalls.

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.
