The logo for the station is the head of a coyote since Nezahualcóyotl is Nahuatl for "hungry coyote", it is similar to the seal of Ciudad Nezahualcóyotl.[2][3] The station was opened on 30 November 2000.[4]
From 2000 to 2002 the station name was Continentes (Spanish for "continents"), due to the station being near the Boulevard de los Continentes, and the icon of the station was a Mollweide projection. In 2002, it was decided to change the name of the station to Nezahualcóyotl, to reflect the name of the municipality that is crossed by this specific station.[5]

Notes
- The data here is limited to the most recent ten years to avoid excessive listings; earlier figures can be found in this page's history or on the Mexico City Metro website. To calculate the average daily ridership, the annual total is divided by 365 days (366 in leap years), with decimals omitted from the result. Each station per line is ranked individually, as the system counts transfer stations separately. The percentage change is calculated automatically using the data from the current year and the previous year.
