Los Altos de Jalisco is formed by stunning red valleys and hills of fertile land. This region integrates symbols of Mexican identity, tenacity, traditions, and religion. Dating back to Spanish conquerors who, rooted in the countryside, formed a region of ranches and haciendas that consolidated the settlements of the communities we see today in Los Altos.
Family, land, work, and religion represent four elements of a culture colloquially named alteña. Over the years, these values have brought pride and identity to the region.
The city of Tepatitlán is known as “the pearl” of Los Altos de Jalisco. The word Tepatitlán means “lugar de piedra dura” in the náhuatl macro-language, which would translate to “place of hard rock.” This flourishing municipality has gained recognition for its natural richness, culture, quality of life, and land use for agricultural and livestock purposes.
Sitting at the height of the Cerro del Maguey and less than 30 minutes away from the city, Rancho Altos constitutes the perfect equilibrium between hectic global connectivity and humane, sustainable peace and tranquility. In an unparalleled manner, Tepatitlán combines its traditional strength with modern-day life. Its high development, reflected on the United Nations development index, places it side by side with some of the world’s top cities.
