In the 1940s the Comité Japonés de Ayuda Mutua (CJAM; "Japanese Committee of Mutual Aid"), a Japanese mutual aid organization based in Mexico City, obtained a hacienda on 200 hectares (490 acres) of land in Temixco from Alejandro Lacy so it could house newly-arriving Japanese coming from other parts of Mexico.[1] The Japanese had moved in by 1943.[2] A school for Japanese students was established in Temixco to serve those on the hacienda.[3] Eventually Mexican parents began asking for their children to attend the Temixco Japanese school.[4]
On January 2, 2016 Mayor Gisela Mota Ocampo was murdered by nine gunmen, just one day after she had taken office as the new mayor.
