If all the projects announced for the area of Miches come true, the country will have another vigorous tourist pole that will be added to the existing ones. It will be a well-deserved progress for that area and its industrious inhabitants. And not only for the latter, since it is very likely that an immigration current will be generated made up of people from other places, who will settle there attracted by the new job opportunities in hotels and recreation sites. Many of them will be Dominicans looking for more income, but many others will be foreigners from the west side of the island.
It is also probable that the physiognomy of the environment varies. The influence of tourism It is not limited to establishments directly linked to tourists, but is felt in related activities that provide them with goods and services. As for goods, they can be produced anywhere in the country or imported from abroad. But the services are usually supplied by people who settle in the neighborhood, creating new urban centers.
It is common for these new cities to arise spontaneously. Due to the rapidity with which they grow, they are often unplanned, lacking basic facilities such as adequate housing, roads, potable water, electricity, schools and hospitals. After consolidating, these towns and cities tend to preserve the chaotic features derived from the improvisation that characterized their origin and evolution, presenting a sharp and impressive contrast with the beautiful and well-kept establishments they serve.
It would be desirable if it did not happen that way. He would like job opportunities to be taken advantage of mainly by locals, settlement to take place in an orderly fashion, and development not to be a source of more illegal immigration. We already have enough experience to achieve it in Michesas long as that is our purpose.
