Distrito, todos venimos del distrito... de allá de por La Villita. In this sentence the "de allá de por" is confusing me, if this means from over there by La Villita, why is "de" used twice? Does allá mean over there or do you have to say allá de?

Allá means over there. If you type this word into the translator you will get many examples of its meaning and uses.

Hope this helps

"De allá de por La Villita" means "From there, near to La Villita". The sentence is expressing that they come from "there", and that place it's near to La Villita.
