Locations in Mexico

The 120 most notable are above. Every place in Mexico, A to Z, with how many productions each carries:

Set in Mexico, not filmed there

3 more places in Mexico appear on this atlas because a game, an anime or a manga is SET there. Nothing was filmed at them: a drawn or rendered work is filmed nowhere, and some of these places are invented and pinned on what Wikidata says they are based on.

Also shot in Mexico, without a precise location

Wikidata records 145 more productions as shot in Mexico while naming only the country or the state: true, and too coarse to pin, so they are named here rather than dropped or guessed at.

Also named as shot in Mexico by their Wikipedia articles

26 productions name Mexico in their Wikipedia articles as where they were shot, without a place inside it, so they are listed here rather than pinned or dropped.

Productions filmed in Mexico

372 more productions are listed on the pages of the places above.
