Something we are loving about living close to the center of the city is how walkable the neighborhood is. Our block alone has restaurants, grocery stores, artesian markets, clothing stores, school supplies, churches, language schools, theaters, banks, libraries, parks, gardens, etc... In other words, our entire world is within walking distance, and we love not having a car!
I'll add one more thing: People here really know how to party! They are constantly setting up and taking down stages, tents, decorations, banners, flags, flower arrangements, etc... The presentation seems to be a key aspect to every event. Presentation, live music, and good food! We are constantly taking notes on how to better entertain.
Most impressive of all (to me at least) is the cleanup. Every morning (and throughout the day) there is an army of people sweeping up the previous night's debris, and even though some of the parties last all night with hundreds of people, the city is always clean! We noticed this two years ago late October when we spent a week in Mexico City. Having a strong cleanup crew really makes the party, and city, so much better.
