Latin American cities

Major urban centers in the Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking nations of the Americas, from Mexico through South America and the Caribbean.

These cities share colonial histories, Romance languages, and often similar urban patterns—historic plazas, sprawling peripheries, stark wealth disparities: Mexico City, São Paulo, and Buenos Aires rank among the world's largest Latin American cities.

The category encompasses tremendous diversity, from Andean capitals to Caribbean ports to Southern Cone metropolises.
