On Wednesday, June 17, 2026, the Mexican government delivered 832 new homes in the Infonavit Lomas de San Miguel complex in Puebla as part of the Vivienda para el Bienestar (Housing for Well-being) program. This milestone was announced during the morning press conference held by President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo at Palacio Nacional.

Originally, the target for Puebla was to build 48,700 homes, but this goal has now been raised to 75,000, reflecting a strong commitment to addressing housing needs in the state. The program aims to benefit approximately 125,000 people and 35,000 families, backed by an investment of 44.6 billion pesos.

Governor Alejandro Armenta expressed gratitude to President Sheinbaum for the significant support provided through this initiative, highlighting the positive impact on Puebla’s communities. Octavio Romero, director of Infonavit, shared that 91 housing developments have been launched under Vivienda para el Bienestar, with 11 more scheduled to open in other states this month.

A particularly meaningful moment during the conference was the delivery of a home to a couple with disabilities, underscoring the program’s inclusive approach to housing access.

This expansion of affordable housing options aligns with broader efforts to improve living conditions and promote social equity, especially for families and individuals who have historically faced barriers to secure, dignified homes. The ongoing investment in Puebla’s housing infrastructure also complements plans for sustainable urban mobility, such as the upcoming cablebús system, which promises to enhance connectivity and quality of life in the region.

For migrants and residents alike, these developments signal a growing commitment to inclusive urban growth and social welfare in Mexico’s evolving landscape.
