About this map

Caguas anchors this dense interior region of the Island of Puerto Rico, where the urban center meets the steep elevations of the Central Mountain Range. The 2018 landscape is defined by a significant educational and civic infrastructure, featuring the Universidad Del Turabo, EDIC College, and the Escuela de Medicina San Juan Bautista. Major transportation arteries, including the Autopista Luis A Ferre and Expreso Cruz Ortiz Stella, facilitate movement through the river valleys of the Rio Turabo and Rio Cañaboncito.

Genealogists and local historians can find several municipal burial grounds, such as Cementerio Municipal Numero Dos and Cementerio Caguas Municipal Tres, alongside smaller rural settlements like Los Panes and Hacienda San Jose. The terrain transitions from the developed flats of Parcelas de Navarro to the high peaks of Cerro Las Piñas and Cerro Gregorio, where numerous quebradas—including Quebrada Sonadora and Quebrada Las Bambúas—drain the surrounding highlands.
