Hacienda Kancabchén Ucí is located in the Motul Municipality in the state of Yucatán in southeastern Mexico.

The Kancabchén hacienda is located on the road to Motul toward to Telchac Pueblo, near a ranch called Kobchen, the only way to get there is to walk or take a bicycle the 4 km (2.5 mi) to the farm.

[5] All of the henequen plantations ceased to exist as autonomous communities with the agrarian land reform implemented by President Lazaro Cardenas in 1937.

His decree turned the haciendas into collective ejidos, leaving only 150 hectares (370 acres) to the former landowners for use as private property.

After 1937, figures indicate those living in the community, as the remaining Hacienda Kancabchén Ucí houses only the owner's immediate family.
