Ecatepec City, once officially San Cristóbal Ecatepec de Morelos, is a city in the State of Mexico and the seat of Ecatepec de Morelos Municipality; however, both the city and the municipality are often known simply as “Ecatepec”. The name “Ecatepec” is derived from Nahuatl, and means “windy hill” or “hill devoted to Ehecatl”. It was also an alternative name or invocation to Quetzalcoatl. “Morelos” is the last name of José María Morelos, a hero of the Mexican War of Independence.
The city is practically co-extensive with the municipality with the city’s 2005 population of 1,687,549 being 99.9% of the total municipal population of 1,688,258. The provisional population at the 2010 Census was 1,658,806. The city forms the most populous suburb of Mexico City (Ciudad de MéXico).
