It is located in the northeastern highlands region of Jalisco, commonly referred to in Spanish as "Los Altos de Jalisco". The grasshopper or "chapulin" is a popular icon for the town.

Teocaltiche is one of the oldest settlements with Hispanic influence from the time of the Spanish conquest. The "Hospital de los Indios" (or alternatively "la Capilla") is a chapel in the city centre and the oldest standing building of Teocaltiche, built around 1546 by the Spanish conquistadors. The territory was conquered by Cristóbal de Oñate and Manuel de Ibarra in March 1530 on the order of Nuño de Guzmán.

Economy

Main manufacture of the region is agricultural products and livestock. The farmers raise horses, cows, sheep, pigs, poultry, and goats. Agriculture includes the production of onions, corn, oats, beans, and alfalfa. There are also many artisans that sell hand-crafted goods, such as woven serapes and chess sets.
