Jamaica has two cities, and one Municipality,the capital which whould be(if you are sending letters to kingston,it should be Kingston, Kingston as Kingston is the smallest parish in JAMAICA,22 KM) Kingston,located on the southeast coast,(and St Andrew co-opperate Area,which streches from the water front of the harbour, to the hills in St Andrew),population,Aprox, 800,000 and more and that was an early 2000 census.
Second city is Montego Bay or the tourist capital as it is known to tourist who go there.Montego Bay has a population close to over 260,000 should be more by now,close to 300,000.
Portmore on the other hand is a Municipality not! a city,in early 2000,s there was a debate whether or not to make that town a city base on it size and economic potential,and educational and many other facter.
In the end it was found wanting,and so the authorities declared it a Municipality,not a city.there are other town centers which are only classified as town areas. |
