Santiago y Lima is a barrio in the municipality of Naguabo, Puerto Rico. Its population in 2010 was 710.[2] [3] [4]

History

Santiago y Lima was in Spain's gazetteers[5] until Puerto Rico was ceded by Spain in the aftermath of the Spanish–American War under the terms of the Treaty of Paris of 1898 and became an unincorporated territory of the United States. In 1899, the United States Department of War conducted a census of Puerto Rico finding that the combined population of Río and Santiago y Lima barrios was 902.[6]

Sectors

Barrios (which are, in contemporary times, roughly comparable to minor civil divisions)[7] 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.[8] [9]

The following sectors are in Santiago y Lima barrio:[10]

Spanish; Castilian: [[Puerto Rico Highway 31|Carretera 31]] (from El Gravero until Edificio Rodríguez), Edificio Rodríguez, Parcelas Nuevas, Parcelas Viejas, Reparto Maribel, Sector La Altura, Sector Monte Soco, and Spanish; Castilian: Sector Morrillo.

Wind turbines

There are thirteen wind turbines located in Punta Lima,[11] [12] some of which were damaged by Hurricane María in September 2017.
