History
Coto Sur was in Spain's gazetteers[11] until Puerto Rico was ceded by Spain in the aftermath of the Spanish–American War under the terms of the Treaty of Paris of 1898 and became an unincorporated territory of the United States. In 1899, the United States Department of War conducted a census of Puerto Rico finding that the combined population of Coto Sur and Coto Norte barrios was 2,110.[12]
The community center, a baseball park and a basketball court was among some of the infrastructure destroyed by Hurricane Maria in 2017. Repairs were funded in 2020.[13]
