This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Ciudad Nezahualcóyotl—1,077,208, America/Mexico_City, and source coordinates—from live travel claims. Those fields identify and compare the record; they do not prove current transport, accessibility, census totals, or a City Atlas Club visit.

That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.

The IANA identifier America/Mexico_City is shared by 22 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPL is shared by 243 rows.

Ciudad Nezahualcóyotl's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly.
