1946 Map of Yabucoa

About this map

The Valle de Yabucoa dominates the southeastern coastline of Puerto Rico in this mid-1940s survey, revealing a landscape deeply defined by the sugar industry. The proximity of Central Roig and Central Columbia underscores the era's economic reliance on large-scale sugarcane processing. The terrain transitions sharply from the coastal valley into the high peaks of the Sierra de Cayey and the Cuchilla de Panduras, where summits like Cerro La Pandura rise above the neighboring municipios.
