Sewage Backup Cripples Aguascalientes Neighborhood

Aguascalientes Sewage Crisis: Pilar Blanco Residents Demand Action Residents of the Pilar Blanco neighborhood in Aguascalientes, Mexico, are facing a serious sanitation crisis. For more than two years, sewage has been backing up into homes along Paseo de la Asunción, causing significant damage and health concerns. The issue is not new; residents have repeatedly contacted municipal authorities, but their pleas have been ignored. "We're elderly, some of us are diabetic, and we don't deserve to live like this." One resident, visibly distressed, described the conditions in her home. Sewage has contaminated her cistern, and wastewater regularly overflows from bathroom drains. The video accompanying this report shows the extent of the problem. Overflowing drains spew raw sewage onto the streets and into homes. The resulting dampness has led to insect infestations, creating unsanitary living conditions. Municipal authorities have been notified repeatedly, yet no permanent solution has been implemented. Residents are now demanding immediate action to resolve this critical public health issue and restore safe and livable conditions in their homes. The ongoing situation underscores the need for improved infrastructure and responsiveness from local officials.
