Where there is the most nightlife per resident

Bars and restaurants per resident, as mapped by OpenStreetMap contributors — a measure of how much there is relative to how many people live there.

78 municipios ranked

Worth knowing: This measures venues per resident, which favours small towns with a busy centre. By sheer number San Juan dwarfs everywhere else — 897 bars, clubs and restaurants against Rincón's 53 — so if you want the biggest scene rather than the densest, that is your answer.

How this ranking is calculated

Each town is ranked against the others on every measure below — its position, not its raw number, so one unusual town cannot distort the scale. Those positions are then combined using these weights:

  • 50% bars & nightlife per 10,000 residents
  • 35% restaurants per 10,000 residents
  • 15% reported Type I crime per 1,000 residents

A town missing one measure is judged on the others rather than penalised for the gap, and shows in that column. A figure marked ± has a wide margin of error: the sample is small, so read it as approximate.
