History

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 population of Plata barrio was 1,554.[7]

Sectors

Barrios (which are like minor civil divisions)[15] 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.[16][17][18]

The following sectors are in Plata barrio:[19]

Carretera 727, Carretera 728, La Tuca, Sector Amoldaderos, Sector Empalme, Sector Escuelas, Sector Fraternidad, Sector Hoyo Frío, Sector Hoyo Oscura, Sector La Calle, Sector La Cantera, Sector La Parada, Sector Los Chorritos, Sector Los Muros, Sector Naguita, Urbanización Paseo del Plata, and Urbanización Valle de la Plata.

Special communities

Since 2001 when law 1-2001 was passed,[20] measures have been taken to identify and address the high levels of poverty and the lack of resources and opportunities affecting specific communities in Puerto Rico. Initially there were 686 places that made the list.[21] By 2008, there were 742 places on the list of Comunidades especiales de Puerto Rico. The places on the list are barrios, communities, sectors, or neighborhoods and in 2004, Amoldadero in La Plata, and Los Muros in La Plata made the list.[21] In 2017, Jesus Velez Vargas, the director of the Special Communities of Puerto Rico program stated that the program was evolving with more ways to help the residents of these so-called marginal communities.[22][23]
