Background


The municipality is formed of east Bolivar Parish and west Guatire Parish. Its northern border, separating it from Vargas State, is the east part of the Costa (or Caribe) Mountain Range, while the lower Caraballo Ridge comprises its southern border. Grande River (also called Guarenas River or Caucagua River) runs from the west to the southeast. Guatire, the municipality's capital city, is located near the western border.
The region was historically an agricultural area that cultivated various export products. The population of Guatire has increased rapidly in recent years as an east suburb of Caracas.
