How to Use This Comunas, Puerto Rico Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Comunas, Puerto Rico. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Puerto Rico or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Comunas.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Comunas, Puerto Rico
Comunas is a locality in Yabucoa County, Puerto Rico, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,423. The population density is 1082.0 people per km². Comunas is located at 18.0872°N, 65.8438°W. It observes the Atlantic Standard Time — no DST (America/Puerto_Rico) timezone. ZIP code: 00767.Comunas occupies a humid, verdant stretch of land where the air carries the salt-heavy weight of the nearby Puerto Yabucoa, despite the terrain’s sheltered distance from the shoreline. It lies 4.5 miles south-southwest of Humacao, PR (from Humacao, PR: bearing 194°T), and is situated 3.4 miles northeast of Yabucoa. The topography shifts from the low, marshy basin of Quebrada Aguacate to the rising, sun-drenched earth that marks the start of the ascent toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Cuchilla de Panduras. Water defines the edges of the landscape, with the steady, rhythmic flow of the Río del Ingenio carving a path through the soil just a mile away, feeding the lush vegetation that thrives in this tropical climate. At the center of daily movement, Parque Comunas provides a communal anchor, its grounds offering a quiet space where the late afternoon light turns the grass a deep, metallic green before the shadows of the palms lengthen across the earth.
Comunas retains the quiet, resilient character of a place that has long balanced the legacy of its agricultural roots with the evolving demands of a modern economy. While the memories of past harvests still linger in the architecture and the orientation of the roads, the current life of Comunas is defined by the slow, deliberate pace of residents who remain connected to the rhythms of the land. The proximity to the coast influences the local perspective, as the distant view of Cayo Batata acts as a constant reminder of the island’s maritime boundaries, yet the people find their primary sustenance and focus in the immediate, fertile valleys. Through the changing seasons, the neighborhood maintains a sense of autonomy, grounded by the steady presence of the river and the persistent, humid heat that dictates the tempo of work and rest alike.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
