Growth vs. Sustainability: The Risks Puerto Vallarta Faces Amid Rapid Expansion

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Puerto Vallarta, a vibrant coastal city known for its stunning beaches, charming cobblestone streets, and rich cultural heritage, is experiencing a surge of growth that shows no signs of slowing down. Construction sites are scattered throughout the city, with new developments breaking ground almost daily. While this rapid expansion reflects the city’s popularity and economic potential, it also exposes a growing concern: the lack of adequate infrastructure to support the increasing population and wave of tourists. Without immediate and strategic intervention, this unchecked growth could pose significant risks to Puerto Vallarta’s appeal as a tourist destination and its real estate market over the next two decades.
