    About Teofani

    Teofani stands at 1,957 metres, on a plain of the Mezquital Valley, under a dry-leaning temperate climate, inside the Neovolcanic Axis province. Its rain ends up in the Actopan River basin. It belongs to the municipality of San Salvador, about 5 km north-north-west of the seat by Wikipedia's coordinates, and its code in INEGI's catalogue is 130540023.

    Its population has only gone up. It counted 358 inhabitants in 1900; in 1940 there were 532, by 1980 it reached 816, and in 2000 it passed a thousand at 1,012. Then 1,039 in 2005, 1,162 in 2010 and 1,302 in 2020, made up of 650 men and 652 women, 3.54% of the municipality. It now has more residents than the seat itself, San Salvador, which counted 1,107.

    The whole municipality is farmland: 68% of the land is cropped, according to INEGI, and in 2015 maize alone covered 3,250 hectares. Among the municipality's speakers of indigenous languages the compendium lists Otomí, Nahuatl and others, and the municipality's traditional food is barbacoa, moronga and huitlacoche quesadillas.

    How to get to Teofani

    Drive from Pachuca: 50 min, 49 km

    Teofani is about 5 km from San Salvador, about 12 km from Actopan, about 25 km from Ixmiquilpan and about 39 km from Pachuca in a straight line (approximate figures from Wikipedia's coordinates; by road they will be longer). El Universal places the Actopan–Ixmiquilpan stretch of the México–Laredo federal highway inside the municipality, at the locality of Caxuxi (March 2026), so that axis is the reference for arriving from either town. From there, ask in San Salvador or along the way for the final stretch to Teofani, and check a current map before setting out.
