This article presents the experiences of people with disabilities when moving in Mexico City in the face of able-bodied urbanism, a system of domination in which the forms, uses and management of the city give privileges and attention to the needs of people considered “able”, “full-bodied”, “intelligent” or “healthy”. A case study is presented with information collected through mobile interviews and participant observation of mobilities. The analysis was conducted using Crip Theory and references from critical disability studies. Among the findings is that enabling urbanism affects a diversity of bodies, including those of people with disabilities, but also many other populations. This is evidence that cities benefit the livability of certain groups based on their class and gender.
