AGUA FRIA 40º LUGAR

English translation: Agua Fría lot 40

Social Sciences - Geography / Mexico
Spanish term or phrase: AGUA FRIA 40º LUGAR
From a Mexican birth certificate (State of Mexico), under LUGAR DE NACIMIENTO (Localidad), it reads "AGUA FRIA 40º LUGAR"

Agua Fria is apparently a small town in the state of Mexico, but what does "40º LUGAR" mean? No other info on place of birth is included.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

In the particular case of the birth certificate I was translating, I did opt to leave it in Spanish per Robert Carter and philgoddard's suggestion as I don't usually translate address elements except for city/country. However, I have clients who specifically request addresses be translated when they are in running text and in that situation I think your solution would be excellent.
