Puerto Tejada is a modest town of just 46,166 people, far from the glitz and glamor of Colombia's major cities. The area has a history of unrest, with past uprisings by slaves and maroons seeking freedom. While the economy was once thriving, bureaucracy and tropical climate can pose persistent headaches for those considering a move. For the hardy few undeterred by these realities, Puerto Tejada may offer a simple, rural lifestyle away from the crowds.
