Living in Cancún

Living in a house in Cancún often means being outside the original superblock core, in subdivisions connected by main avenues like López Portillo. The immediate surroundings are different from those of a building: instead of shared interior streets inside a superblock, these subdivisions rely on main avenues to connect with the rest of the city. The everyday experience of living there is tied more to that residential and road structure than to the building logic of downtown or the Hotel Zone.

What to consider before renting

Access to Alfredo V. Bonfil depends on Boulevard Luis Donaldo Colosio, the road that connects it to the airport and the rest of the city, rehabilitated as part of federal highway 307 between Puerto Juárez and the airport. Downtown's superblocks, by contrast, handle much of their internal traffic within their own street network. For Alfredo V. Bonfil, that single road is the direct link to the rest of Cancún, a different kind of connection than the superblock grid downtown.
