Naco Neighborhood in Santo Domingo De Guzman, D.N

Greater Santo Domingo (Template:Lang-es) is a term commonly used referring to the metropolitan area of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic.

This may be the Santo Domingo province together with the Distrito Nacional. Before 2001 the Distrito Nacional included the Santo Domingo Province. For administrative and urbanization purpose the Santo Domingo province was split from Distrito Nacional which was made much smaller than before being enclosed by the Santo Domingo province and the Caribbean Sea (south coast).^[1]

This metropolitan area also could include several more municipalities.
