Mexico City is divided into sixteen municipalities (Spanish: municipios),[1] which have regulatory powers and are not fully autonomous in their internal administration. As of 2000, the citizens within a municipality elect by plurality a head of government, as of 2016, known as "municipal president" (Spanish: presidente municipal). Mexico City recorded an official 2010 census tally of 8,851,080 inhabitants.[2]
The municipalities are subdivided into neighborhoods (colonias in Spanish) and in some cases in the southernmost municipalities, also into towns and rural settlements.
