I lived on 107 bo. Borinquen for over 3 years and often made that same scenic drive to Aguadilla town....,Incredible sight as you travel down the road and see that magnificent ocean view.....
I stay down in aguadilla every time I’m in Puerto Rico. I stay at the vista mar condominiums and I love it, great location and view. My sisters live right around the corner too so it’s just the perfect spot.
I really dislike how people are trying to convert our island with that New York vibe hiking the prices on homes and local businesses unbelievable are island is beautiful as it always been shame on government officials to allow it
I’m all for foreign investment. One question I do hate that Americans ask though: “Do we need to speak Spanish?” Duh, of course. Who thinks of going to a foreign land and believe that they need to be served in their language? That’s what bothers many of us here on the island. While, to our demise, we’re a colony, we still are our own nation with our own culture and language. We invite anyone to come enjoy it-but the idea that we have to accommodate others so that they feel comfortable: that’s a big no.
Ideally bilingual would be beneficial, or Aguadilla will have small areas just like Rincon. I saw the effects of making small areas, similar to how Cancun got transformed decades ago. Also, property is getting bought up, in Quebradillas. Make sure your deeds are good, or CRIM will come to collect, and if no taxes paid, sell off quickly.
@@alejandrobendana8712 Puerto Rico accumulated more than $70 billion in public debt and more than $50 billion in public pension liabilities through decades of corruption, mismanagement and excessive borrowing. The U.S. Congress created the federal board in 2016, a year after the island's government said it was unable to pay its debt. Pay you own debts....
@@elwoodarmstrong1836 darling, the debt also stems from the corruption brought to us from your government, including but not limited to: the Jones-Shafroth Act. We have to pay up to three times more for a product simply by whim because your government wants to control how we transport our imports and exports. Rather than being able to negotiate directly with other countries whom we’ve had relationships much before yours and acquire and sell our products with those country, we have to deal with y’all instead. Where a pound of bananas should cost us max 20 cents, it costs us almost a dollar because we have to buy it from y’all. Let’s not even go into the bonds and how y’all stripped the interests that usually are associated to these thus opening the door to a lack of accountability from y’all. Please don’t speak ignorance. Educate yourself first before you talk about the situation of my country.
Increíble !!!!!! Soy nacida en aguadilla. Fui criada caminando por todas esas playas a pie. Las cosas han cambiando mucho, pero Aguadilla NO SE VENDE 😡 Favor de dejar vivienda para los nativos de Aguadilla que no pueden competir con el pago americano para rentar, mucho menos pueden comprar casas en su propia tierra 😡 Esas dos escuelas que serán convertidas en “ bead and breakfast” no es asunto de risas !!! La boba esa no sabe de qué se está riendo. En el pueblo habían seis escuelas y ahora sólo queda UNA. Uhhhhgggg ! Tengan más respeto e investiguen un poco de historia antes de hacer estos videos y de reírse como extranjeros que son. Extranjeros= Extraños 🤔 No saben como ofenden, ni a quien!!!!!!
Necesitamos progreso muchas areas en Puerto Rico se ven abandonadas y deprimentes. Esa área de Aguadilla tiene un potencial increible pero hay muchos edificios y lotes vacios ahora mismo. Además da empleo a un área con alto desempleo.
He's, always saying "People are just staring to figure it out" *we the locals always knew it* but I don't think locals are the ones buying those expensive properties on nice spots around the Island 😐
@@dorkladytravels this is a lie. There are NO incentives for locals to buy these properties, and the taxes are DOUBLE for us. For people coming from the continental US, it’s a tax break to OUR taxpayer’s cost. It’s Hawaii, all over again. Colonizing at its worst, like only US knows how. #Colonizer
That's very unlikely. The population of Hawaii wasn't that much; that made it vulnerable to the influence of the many immigrant groups. Early in the 20th Century, US tried the same, to "americanize" PR, even making an English language school system; it didn't work.
11:00 to 11:30 showed the José A. Aponte public housing project ('caserío / residencial), where I used to live as a teen and young adult. Good memories!
@@joselassalle5906 you are underestimating them. And that is why you will suffer a rude awakening when it does become like Hawaii. They started coming as soon as the storm was over. If you live in PR and were here during that time and your eyes were open you'd know that that was the beginning of it all
Hi Diane 👋 sounds ike a wonderful plan. Developing to help the community and its people with jobs.it would be great if they would also build affordable housing for people.i think progress is great ,wonderful when it benefits everyone. Glad to have you back missed your videos. You should move back to puerto rico you have vision.skateboard park for kids nice ,opportunities for the youth.,schools sports. The economy must improve with opportunities. Now if someone would improve the healthcare. Some of us wouldn't be living in the states. Take care,stay safe Evelyn

@@dorkladytravels Unfortunately, from what I have heard & read, over the years several major events happened causing the closing of schools: the municipalities didn't have sufficient funds and after the hurricanes many teachers and staff relocated to the mainland. In the south-west several schools were severely damaged by the earthquakes the beginning of 2020. A few months after Maria I went with a friend to the houses at Tamarindo (the seaside area near rompeolas where you guys drove by), saw the damaged houses & and talked the residents. I recently saw a video of that area by vlogger Jesus Valle and it seems to have been rebuilt & recovered. I only wonder where kids go to school since the school buildings you show have been closed for some years.
Why are these prices and these changes. Crazy I have a house in Aguadilla near the water.My grand ma and grand father own it with 7 children Now it's mys I will not sell for nothing in the world.

It has nothing to do with the government! Its what the want and willing to pay.

what is the name of your realtor or the person driving you around Aguadilla?
If Aquadila wants to be the next South Beach they should start marketing to the gay community.
I lived there it was great 👍
Yeah
I stayed in Aguadilla and loved it. What realtor do you recommend I work with stay to buy properties or land in this area?

They are getting ready to open a Sam's Club in Aguadilla.
Costco ???
We don’t appreciate gentrification.
for that to happen, Pricans need to sell their properties. So make a movement to tell Pricans not to sell.
