This one is a pretty difficult quiz, even for Mexicans. We tend to think about the metros, but is really rare that we think in cities proper. Luckily (for me) I have relatives living in some of the municipios that form the metros, so I just thought about them.

They (I) just looked at the answers without filling any in because they (I) had no chance of guessing more than 2 or 3

Even Spanish Wikipedia makes no reference to it being spelled with two L's: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexicali

Mexico City could be subdivided into its 16 "alcaldías", as the cities mentioned are municipalities of the states that comprehend all México (country)
