There's no such thing as officially derived "metropolitan area" in Mexico, so it's a difficult question. Mexican Census figures are notoriously bad too.
I think the general estimate is that about 25 million people live in the greater region, though that number would probably be lower if you're not counting places like Toluca and the like which aren't really commutable to DF but still part of an unbroken sprawl of development.
