      Yes, I spoke with a few people who did not want to be on camera, but really cool respectful people. And the respect is mutual. I will be going back to PR. To learn and experience more.

    La Perla, it is safe during the day. At night is dangerous because there are drugs alleys. Just go have a drink and nobody will mess with you. Puerto Ricans are very friendly and they make feel welcome.

    "La Perla" is a and old, poor and seedy neighborhoodof leyend. Not to say there are no good folks living there. Even a sociology book was written about it in 1967, frought with negative stereotypes that were, erroneously, interpreted to describe all Puertorricans and their culture in a bad light. It was the site of an old slaughter house in the 18th century and grew into a shanty town for slaves on the outskirts of the main city itself. Thru the centuries, it grew to accomodate farmers and others migrating to the capital from rural areas of PR.. Though it has been slowly restored and recently painted (2017) to resemble a picturesque town, it still remains an eyesore, and a den of drug traffickers, delinquents and other unsavory characters, in my opinion.
    It should have never been allowed to remain a slum and no man's land for decades, especially, in such a beautiful area of the Old San Juan District.
    The inhabitants have taken and claimed the land for themselves and created businesses, recreational areas and a whole community. The government never did anything to remove them when it was possible to do so and now they will not surrender the land. The area is coveted as prime real estate by the goverment and developers but the prospect of relocating the inhabitants of this, now infamous neighborhood, has become a political issue with class discrimina
    tion and gentrification undertones. No government adm. wants to address the subject or do anything about it despite social, financial and environmen
    tal concerns. It shall remain there indefinitely.
