In Venezuela, a stark contrast once existed along its Caribbean coast. Yacht owners and public housing residents lived in close proximity, with some apartments offering direct access to a marina.

Their homes, including hundreds in public housing towers, were situated on the same street, providing scenic views of the coastline. The area, known as Caraballeda, featured white sandy beaches and crystal waters.

Further details about the current state of this Venezuelan coastal community are available from KPRC 2 Houston, which reports on the shared decline of this once-idyllic area.
