Pueblo Nuevo

Pueblo Nuevo is a neighbourhood close to downtown on the Kokomo Islands. Previously named "Wilkerson", it is one of the oldest neighbourhoods on the island. It is today of major Latin influence and most of the previously white population has since moved out.

History
Originally constructed as a mobile home village in 1958, it was by 1962, a quiet little neighbourhood named "Wilkerson", where there lived mostly retirees. The demographic remained unchanged through most of the 1960's, until the new-claimed government started laying out streets and constructing highrises in close proximity to the old neighbourhood. As "downtown" was constructed, many retirees moved to new locations or back to the United States because of noise problems. The demographic changed even more when Latino immigrants started to live in the neighbourhood. From 1966 to 1974, the population race switched from primarily white, to almost entirely latin and part black. Many homes became run down and unmaintained because of the low income of most latino residents, and the crime levels also hit new spikes every year.

The name changed from "Wilkerson" to "Pueblo Nuevo" meaning "New town" on May 6th, 1974, to be more fitting for the current new population. On June 12th, 1975, the neighbourhood was declared to be the most unsafe on the island by the New Island Times. Many of the runned down mobile homes were demolished by the city to construct cheap apartment blocks, not only to clear out the poor homes, but to also give more space for more people to live in the neighbourhood.
