902 barrios of Puerto Rico

Barrios (which for US census purposes, are roughly comparable to minor civil divisions)[2] in turn are further subdivided into smaller local populated place areas/units called sectores (sectors in English). The types of sectores may vary, from normally sector to urbanización to reparto to barriada to residencial, among others.[3][4][5] Sectores are not on this list.

Notes edit

  1. ^ Those barrios called "barrio-pueblo" were called "pueblo" until they were renamed "barrio-pueblo" by the US 1990 US Census. However, the locals, who don't work with the Census, still call it just "pueblo", or "el pueblo" (the pueblo)
