Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey did not see the expected visitor influx or economic impact compared with the 1970 and 1986 World Cups, 24 Horas reported.[^5]

The same three cities are named in a second report this week. Juvenal Becerra Orozco said irregular medicine sales are concentrated in the metropolitan zone of Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey, and in Michoacán, and that the products enter Mexico through borders with Central America as well as from India and China.[^1]

A third report names the same cities. WRI Mexico said Mexico City, Monterrey and Guadalajara consistently exceed the PM2.5 levels that the World Health Organization recommends.[^4]

The cities are on calendars for coming months too. Interpol will play the Arena Guadalajara on March 2, 2027, the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes in Mexico City on March 6 and the Arena Monterrey on March 9, after listening parties for its album in eight Latin American cities that included all three.[^2][^3] The contemporary dance piece 'Omphalos' by choreographer Damien Jalet will premiere at Monterrey's Teatro de la Ciudad Crédito.[^6]
