The City Where I Live Utuado

By Dr. Emid Núñez Conde

The town where I live is called Utuado, a beautiful town in west central Puerto Rico my homeland. 


In the center of the city is the Plaza de Recreo, common space for people to socialize and recreate. 


So I saw the place in the 50s, we can see the simplicity of the construction, a platform with a triangle of roads based gardening and lawn planted.

Also another point of reference is the mayor's house, known as the council house. 


In Puerto Rico there are 78 villages and each village has a government center that is home to City Hall. These structures were made centuries ago, on November 11, 1734, Spanish Governor Matthias Abbey granted the license to start the foundation of Utuado.
