Mexico City
One of the most populated cities in the world, the capital of Mexico offers a combination of Aztec history, baroque architecture and such diverse neighborhoods that range from pure bohemian to purely traditional, and everything imaginable in between. At an altitude of 2240 meters, the weather is pleasant all year round, making it ideal to hang out in one of the city's lively public squares surrounded by stunning cathedrals, in one of the beautiful and expansive parks or in a quaint sidewalk cafe. Throw in an abundance of mouthwatering food around every corner and a friendly local population and Mexico City will always remain a great place for remote workers to settle down for a few months.
