Puerto Vallarta Faces Cemetery Shortage as Urban Burial Spaces Dwindle

PUERTO VALLARTA, Mexico — The city’s public cemeteries are nearing a crisis point, with available burial plots in urban areas set to run out in as little as two months. According to Javier Navarro, Director of Public Services, only one of the three cemeteries located in the city itself still has space—El Progreso—which has room for approximately 80 more graves.
