- In general, colonias (Spanish pronunciation: [koˈlonjas]) are neighborhoods in Mexican cities, which have no jurisdictional autonomy or representation. It is plausible that the name, which literally means 'colony', arose in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when one of the first urban developments outside Mexico City's core was inhabited by a French colony in the city. Usually colonias are assigned a specific postal code; nonetheless, in recent urban developments, gated communities are also defined as colonias and share the postal code of adjacent neighborhoods. In spite of this, the name of the colonia must be specified when writing an address in large urban areas in Mexico. It is a similar concept to the barangays of the Philippines. (en)
- Una colonia es la denominación que se le da en México a un vecindario que no tiene autonomía jurisdiccional o representación. Habitualmente, las colonias tienen un código postal específico. A los desarrollos urbanos modernos, como las comunidades en urbanización cerrada, llamadas barrios, fraccionamientos o vecindarios privados, se les denomina también colonias. Debido a que hay localidades que no tienen colonias, el gobierno suele dar la equivalencia a una colonia con una localidad.[cita requerida] (es)
