Verónica Castro is a small neighborhood (colonia) of Mexico City in the Gustavo A. Madero borough.[1]
Topography
Because of the neighborhood's mountainside location, the narrow streets are steeply inclined and there is a large, rocky hillside space that is undeveloped.[2] Development on these steep hillsides increases the risk of collapse and danger to inhabitants. Consequently residents have built their own masonry retaining walls to help stabilize the hillside.[3]
