We left Chichen Itza and headed to another ruin - Ek Balam. Highway brought us to the small sleepy town of Temozón which we passed without stopping. Later I did some research and found very little information about this small town in the middle of nowhere.

 
Here are some facts:
Temozón is 30 meters above sea level.
There are 6553 inhabitants. 


People from outside the State of Yucatán account for 1.86% of the total population.

10.22% of the inhabitants are illiterate.
96.40% of the population is indigenous, and 62.96% of the inhabitants speak one of the indigenous languages.


3.20% of the population speaks one of the indigenous languages, but not Spanish.


In Temozón there are 1945 dwellings.

98.03% of the dwellings have electricity, 60.33% a washing-machine.


17.58% have a car or a van.


7.53% have a landline telephone, 47.69% mobile phone.
