damn someone fucked your shit up

ok, check it.. the word you're looking for is "chilango".. chilango is what they call country mexican people, who move to mexico city to work.. later move out to the country with the habits of the City.. IE: drinking/smoking/yes.. sometimes robbing, scamming. ETC/drugs amongst other things.

Chilango is not offensive.. most people from mexico (those who ARENT from mexico city) think Chilango is what you call anyone from Mexico city, well if you're born and raised like myself, you're considered a "capitalino".. if you moved there from the country, you are a "chilango".

everyone in mexico hates people from the City.. we are looked down on for the crimes and extremely ugly things that happen there. its almost like putting 2 different types of people together. kinda like grabbing someone off of bankhead hwy to join someone from the sugarloaf country club to a nice little chat about life... but much more complicated.

most mexican people you'll meet or see or from the country.. like your south here for example, rarely you'll meet/see someone from mexico city.. so far im the only one i know of into the car thing, and i've met alot of people.
