Palma Sola is located on the northeastern side of the island, in the town of Canóvanas.[2] It is north of Las Piedras, south of Loíza, east of Carolina and west of Río Grande. Palma Sola is a sector of Canóvanas along with other sectors such as: Alturas, Finca Poso, Las Magas, La Central, Lomas del Viento, Cambalache, Peniel and Sector El Hoyo.[3]
Hurricane Maria
In September 2017, Hurricane Maria destroyed the only bridge connecting the isolated community to a highway and all the sectors were left without electrical power.[4] Six months later, when power was finally restored, the local evangelical church in Palma Sola showed their appreciation to subcontractors with a brunch.[3]
Crime wave
In early 2018, the police talked about a crime wave hitting the area when three murders took place within the first 15 days of the New Year.[5] In May and July 2019, more shootings in Palma Sola were reported.[6][7]
