USGS Digital Elevation Map data shows the rugged, steep terrain which surrounds the city. Mexico Citys position with respect to these mountains results in air from the city getting trapped so that smog accumulates. The city is built on land formed from the erosion of the mountains, so that buildings and structures in the city rest in sedimentary rocks rather than bedrock. This leaves buildings more vunerable to damage from earthquakes.   324   Mexico City, (high vertical exaggeration)

Starting from space, this fly-by approaches the Earth and, then travels underwater, following the ocean floor topography, passing boats, sea life, and submarines in the process, finally resurfaceing above the water and traveling back into space.   78   Ocean Planet: Final Version with Credits
