Archaeology

Chicoloapan is the site of an unprotected ancient Mesoamerican city of the same name. The first settlements in the area were before the rise of Teotihuacan around 200 BCE, and it prospered for generations after the fall of Teotihuacan around 550-600 CE.[1] The site's long history of settlement provides important insight into the relationship between urban centers and their hinterlands.

Media

The government has a website where information about its activities through newsletters. Most public and private high schools have websites.

As for secondary or primary, only a few individuals have this service.

The city has, since 2006, a community portal which generates collaborative contents such as news, photos, radio and TV programs online. The portal is an initiative of civil society independent from the local government, the religion or the political party. In 2010 it received the UVM Social Development[2] Award for its commitment to the dissemination of community activities to build the social fabric.[3]
