There were reports of people trapped in collapsed buildings, but there was no immediate information of casualties.
Earlier this month, a strong 8.1 magnitude tremor left at least 90 dead.
The quake hit the central state of Puebla, next to the capital, at a shallow depth of 32 miles (51 km), the US Geological
Survey said. Damage was also reported in other cities.
Fires have also been reported and cities around Mexico City were also affected.
The tremor happened as an earthquake drill was being held in Mexico City, on the 32nd anniversary of a quake that killed up to 10,000 people.
