Chapelton, Jamaica: The Central Hub of the St. Catherine District
Chapelton, the capital of the St. Catherine District of Jamaica, is located in the southeastern part of the country, approximately 20 kilometers from the capital city of Kingston, and is an important part of the greater Kingston metropolitan area. As the administrative and commercial center of the region, Chapelton is well served by the A1 highway, which runs north-south, connecting Kingston to the south coast. The local economy is predominantly agricultural, with tropical crops such as sugar cane and bananas, as well as small-scale manufacturing and retailing. The town is small, but carries a strong indigenous Jamaican culture and a friendly community atmosphere, making it an ideal place to experience daily life in the region. It is ideally located to receive the urban radiation of Kingston while retaining the tranquil character of a Caribbean town, making it an important node in southeastern Jamaica.
