Barrios and Municipios in the Estuary’s basin

The archipelago of Puerto Rico is divided into various geopolitical regions that have been established for legal or statistical purposes. These regions form a structured hierarchy, of which neighborhoods and municipalities constitute the two largest administrative divisions. Both are legal divisions, outlined by the Legislative Assembly of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (Estado Libre Asociado de Puerto Rico) (Puerto Rico Planning Board, 2018). Puerto Rico has 78 municipalities and 902 neighborhoods. The United States Census Bureau collects information on population, housing, businesses, and agriculture and is aggregated for these regions (Puerto Rico Planning Board, 2018).

The map shows the municipalities and neighborhoods that form the Estuario de la Bahía de San Juan, according to the Federal Census Bureau’s designations.
