AI Overview
Puerto Rico is divided into 78 municipalities, which are its main administrative divisions, each with its own mayor and municipal legislature, such as San Juan, Bayamón, Ponce, Carolina, and Mayagüez, among others, which vary in size and characteristics, including coastal and mountainous municipalities, and island towns like Vieques and Culebra.
Some examples of notable municipalities:
San Juan: The capital and the largest municipality in terms of population.
Bayamón: An important urban center in the metropolitan area.
Ponce: Known as the “Pearl of the South.”
Caguas: The “City of the Creole,” located in the center of the island.
Arecibo: Famous for its Observatory and its “Diamond of the North.”
Aguadilla: Known as “The Town of the Sharks.”
Adjuntas: Nicknamed “The Switzerland of Puerto Rico” for its cool climate.
Fajardo: The departure point for the islands of Vieques and Culebra.
Culebra and Vieques: Island municipalities with unique characteristics.
How they are organized:
Each municipality is governed by a mayor and a unicameral legislature, elected every four years.
The municipalities are subdivided into barrios (wards), which are further divided into sub-barrios or communities, according to Wikipedia.
These municipalities are grouped into senatorial districts, but these have no administrative functions, only electoral ones.
