Chihuahua is a state in northwest Mexico that is divided into 67 municipalities. According to the 2020 INEGI census, Chihuahua is the 12th most populous state with inhabitants and the largest by land area spanning . Every three years, citizens elect a municipal president () by a plurality voting system who heads a concurrently elected municipal council () responsible for providing all the public services for their constituents. The municipal council consists of a variable number of trustees and councillors (). Municipalities are responsible for public services (such as water and sewerage), street lighting, public safety, traffic, and the maintenance of public parks, gardens and cemeteries. They may also assist the state and federal governments in education, emergency fire and medical services, environmental protection and maintenance of monuments and historical landmarks. Since 1984, they have had the power to collect property taxes and user fees, although more funds are obtained from the state and federal governments than from their own income.
