Number of Inhabitants

The island.—The island of Puerto Rico was formally surrendered by Spain to the United States ¡n October 1898 and by the Treaty of Paris, signed December 10 of the same year at the cióse of the Spanish-American War, was ceded to the United States, together with Vieques, Culebra, and other small adjacent islands. The population of Puerto Rico on April 1, 1950, was 2,210,703.

Entre 1899, la fecha en la cual el gobierno de los Estados Unidos tomó el primer censo, y 1950 la población aumentó más del doble. Las tasas de crecimiento de.la población durante el período de 51 años varían de 16.3 por ciento, la más baja,

of the United States, and 1950 the population more than doubled. The rates of population growth over the 51-year period ranged from a low of 16. 3 percent for the decade ending in 1920 to a high of 21.1 porcent for the decade ending in 1940. The numerical

increase of 341,448 between 1940 and 1950 was the largest inter censal gain in the history of Puerto Rico and represented an in crease of 18.3 percent over the 1940 population of 1,869,255. Usual place of residence.—In accordance with Census practico, each person enuinerated in the 1950 Census was counted as an

inhabitant of his usual place of residence or usual place of abode, which is generally construed to mean the place where he lives and sleeps most of the time. This place is not necessarily the same as

his legal residence, voting residence, or domicile, although, in the vast majority of cases, the use of these different bases of classification would produce identical results. In the application of this rule, persons were not always counted as residents of the places in which they happened to be found by the census enumerators. Visitors found staying in private homes ■were not ordinarily interviewed there. Information on persons

away from their usual place of residence was obtained from other members of their families, landladies, etc. If an entire family was expected to be away during the whole period of the enumeration, information on it was obtained from neighbors. A matching procesa was used to elimínate duplícate reports for per sons who reported for themselves while away and were also reportad by their families at home.

En 1950, ciento

en la década terminada en 1920 a 21.1 por ciento, la más alta, en la década terminada en 1940. El aumento numérico de 341,448

en el período entre 1940 a 1950 fué el crecimiento intercensal más grande en la historia de Puerto Rico y representa un aumento de 18.3 por ciento sobre la población de 1,869,255 en 1940. Lugar habitugil de residencia.—De acuerdo con la práctica

censal, toda persona enumerada en el censo de 1950 fué considerada habitante de su lugar habitual de residencia, es decir, por regla general, el lugar donde la persona habitualmente vive y duerme. El lugar habitual de residencia no es necesariamente el lugar de residencia legal ni el lugar de votar ni el domicilio, sin embargo, en la mayoría de los casos, la aplicación de estas distintas bases de clasificación resultaría lo mismo.

En la aplicación de esta regla, todas las personas no fueron siempre incluidas como residentes de los lugares donde fueron encontradas por los enumeradores del censo. Visitantes en

hogares privados por lo general no fñeron entrevistados.

La

información para personas ausentes de sus lugares habituales de residencia fué obtenida de otros miembros de la familia, de amas

de casa, etc. En el caso de una familia la cual estaría ausente durante el período completo de la enumeración, el enumerador obtuvo la información de los vecinos. Se utilizó un procedimiento de cotejo para eliminar duplicación de informe para esas personas que informaron mientras estaban afuera y también fueron infor mados por sus familias en sus iiogares.

the population of the ports in which their vessels were berthed on April 1. In 1940 such persons were treated as part of the popula tion of the port from which the vessels operated.

located; whereas patients in general hospitals, -who ordinarily have short stays, were counted at, or allocated to, their homes. AJI persone without a usual place of residence were counted where they were enumerated.

Urban and rural population.—As in previous censuses, the urban popiilation of Puerto Rico has been defined as that living in citieSj towns, and villages of 2,500 inhabitants or more. The remaining population is classified as rural. The 1950 urban population of Puerto Rico numbered 894,813 persons, or 40.5 percent of the total population (table 1). This population was living in the 54 urban places in the island. Twofifths of the urban population were hving in the two cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more—San Juan and Río Piedras (table 2). Ají additional quarter of the urban population was accounted for by the four other places of 25,000 to 100,000 inhabitants.

All 14 places of 10,000 inhabitants or more shared in the growth of the urban population between 1940 and 1950. The largest numerical increase as well as the most rapid rate of growth—• 112,503 and 564.3 percent, respectively—was recorded by Río Piedras city. A large amount of the increase is attributable to annexations of territory by the city during the decade. The

institución estaba ubicada; mientras que pacientes recluidos en hospitales y clínicas, por corto tiempo fueron incluidos o asignados a sus hogares. Toda persona sin lugar habitual de residencia fué incluida con la población donde fué enumerada. Población urbana y rural.—Como en los censos anteriores, la población urbana se define como aquella que vive en las ciudades, pueblos y aldeas de 2,500 o más habitantes. El resto de la pobla ción se clasifica como rural.

La población urbana de Puerto Rico en 1950 era 894,813 per sonas, o 40.5 por ciento de la población total (tabla 1). Esta población vivía en los 54 lugares urbanos de la isla. Dos quintas partes de la población urbana vivían en las dos ciudades de más de

100,000 habitantes—es decir, en San Juan y Rio Piedras (tabla 2). Otra cuarta parte de la población urbana vivía en los cuatro lugares Urbanos de 25,000 a 100,000 habitantes.

Los catorce lugares urbanos de 10,000 o más habitantes par ticiparon en el crecimiento urbano entre 1940 y 1950. La ciudad de Rio Piedras registró no sólo el aumento numérico más alto sino

también la tasa de crecimiento más alta—112,503 y 564.3 por ciento, respectivamente. Gran parte de tal aumento puede atri

The rural population of Puerto Rico comprised 1,315,890 Of the

rural population, 51,201 persons, or 3.9 percent, were living in the 31 towns or villages having fewer than 2,500 inhabitants (table 2). Trends in the urban and rural population.—The 1950 urban population of Puerto Rico was more than six times as large as the urban population of 138,703 reported in 1899 (table 1). The

and 96 percent of the increase in total population between 1940 and 1950. The proportion of the population of Puerto Rico

living in urban places nearly tripled over the 51-year period, increasing from 14.6 percent in 1899 to 40.5 percent in 1950. The rural popidation of Puerto Rico rose steadily from 814,540 in 1899 to 1,315,890 in 1950 (table 1). In each of the intercensal

periods both the numerical increase and the rate of growth of the urban population exceeded those for the rural population. As a result of the greater increases in the urban population, the pro portion of the population of Puerto Rico living in rural territory declined steadUy from 85.4 to 59.5 percent between 1899 and 1950.

814,540 habitantes en 1899 a 1,315,890 en 1950 (tabla 1). En cada periodo intercensal el aumento numérico y la tasa de crecimien

to de la población urbana excedieron los de la población rural. Como resultado de los aumentos mayores en la población urbana, la proporción de la población de Puerto Rico que vivía en el

territorio rural decreció continuamente de 85.4 a 59.5 por ciento entre 1899 y 1950.

Municipalities.—For purposes of local government. Puerto Rico is divided into 77 areas called municipalities. Between 1940 and 1950, 72 of the municipalities increased in population (table 4).

In two of the municipalities—Río Piedras and Cataño—the popu lation more than doubled over the 10-year period. Río Piedras also had the largest numerical increase—75,699. The municipal ities of San Juan and Ponce had numerical increases of 55,520

Of the five municipalities which lost population between 1940 and 1950, Vieques was the only one which had also lost population in the preceding decade. Minor civil divisions.—To the primary political divisions into which eounties in continental United States are divided, the

divisions. Neither the barrios ñor the cities and towns which

occupy the closely settled areas have any form of government distinct from that of the municipality in which they are located. A number of the barrios are divided into sub-barrios. All but

one of the barrios so divided form parts of cities. The single exception is Aguirre barrio in the municipality of Salinas.

tres municipios representa el 44.8 por ciento del aumento de la

población de Puerto Rico. De los cinco municipios que decrecieron entre 1940 y 1950, Vieques fué el único que también había decrecido en la década anterior.

Divisiones civiles menores.—A las divisiones políticas primarias

continentales, el Negociado del Censo aplica el término general Los municipios de Puerto Rico

consideran divisiones civiles menores.

Ni los barrios ni las

ciudades y pueblos que ocupan el territorio densamente poblado tienen ninguna otra forma de gobierno local que la del municipio en que están ubicados. Cierto número de barrios están divididos en

sub barrios. Todos dichos barrios, exceptuando uno, constituyen parte de las cuidados. La sola excepción es el barrio de Aguirre en el municipio de Salinas.


NUMBER OF INHABITANTS Cities, towns, and villages.—In 3 950 there were four places known as cities: San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico, Mayagüez, Ponce, and Río Piedras. The place in which the government of the 73 remaining municipalities is located is known as a town. In all municipalities the city or the town bears the same ñame as the municipality in which it is located. In addition, there were eight places known as villages. Fifty-four of the places were urban places, that is, places of 2,500 inhabitants or more.

Ciudades, pueblos y aldeas.—En 1950, habían cuatro lugares

designados ciudades en Puerto Rico: San Juan,la capital de Puerto Rico, Maj'agüez, Ponce, y Río Piedras. El sitio en que está ubicado el gobierno local de los 73 municipios restantes se designa "pueblo." En todos los municipios, la ciudad o pueblo lleva el mismo nombre del municipio en el cual está ubicado. Además,

habían ocho lugares designados aldeas. Cincuenta y cuatro de los lugares eran lugares urbanos, es decir, lugares con 2,500 o más habitantes.

The relationship between the places and barrios varíes considerably. The cities are composed of more than one barrio, with San Juan city also coextensive with the municipality of the same

ñame. The towns are composed of one or more barrios. Two of the villages—Ensenada and Loíza Aldea—are coextensive with the barrios in which they are located; three villages—Florida,

Jobos, and Puerto Jobos—form parts of barrios; and three—Cen tral Aguirre, Coquí, and San Felipe—form sub-barrios of Aguirre barrio in the municipality of Salinas.

Senatorial districts.—Puerto Rico is divided into seven sena

torial districts for electoral purposes. The composition of the seven districts is shown on the inaps on pp. 53-2 to 53-5. In 1950 the districts ranged in population from District 7 (Humacao) with 260,990 inhabitants to District 1 (San Juan) with 577,500 in habitants (table 7). All seven districts shared in the increase in the population of Puerto Rico, with the largest gain—179,770 having been recorded in District 1.
