Can you see auroras in United Mexican States?

It depends on latitude: United Mexican States's cities sit between geomagnetic 23.5° and 39.1°. The closer a city is to the auroral oval, the lower the Kp it needs — each city page shows its own threshold and tonight's estimate.

Is the forecast different across United Mexican States?

The Kp index is planetary — the same for all of United Mexican States. What differs is the effective local exposure (2.3–2.7 at the coming peak) and the timing, which each city page shows in its own timezone.
