Land Measurement in Mexico: Hectares, Not Acres

Mexico uses the metric system exclusively for land measurement. You will not find official listings in "acres." The standard unit is the hectare (ha).

Conversion: 1 hectare = 2.47105 acres (≈ 2.5 acres).

For reference:

• 1 hectare = 10,000 square meters
• 1 acre ≈ 4,047 square meters

When buying or researching property in Mexico, always confirm measurements are in hectares or square meters.
