I'm from Hatillo, Puerto Rico. I must inform you that you have the flag of my town upside down. I have a site about Hatillo at <www.galeon.com/hatilloweb> and before I published it, I went to the "Oficina de Turismo" and assurred myself of the correct position of the flag and was told that the blue stripe is the first stripe. See my page about Hatilo symbols at <www.galeon.com/hatilloweb/simbolos.html>.

I found that there are some contadictions regarding the municipal flag of Hatillo. According to "Puerto Rico: Enciclopedia Manual" (ISBN 1-932243-15-1), the correct flag for the municipality of Hatillo is the horizontal tricolour of green, yellow and blue, where the green and blue are of equal size and the yellow is 1/5 of the width of the green and blue stripes.

I live in Arecibo, near Hatillo, and I saw the City Hall with the flag.that appear in my website.

WRONG Flags According to Web Sites


Wrong flag based on <www.xsn.net> (defunct) and other reports.

Wrong flag with thin central stripe.
image by Thanh-Tâm Le, 12 January 1999


Wrong flag according to the image at Lexjuris site and pueblos-de-puertorico.com site (defunct)
image by Thanh-Tâm Le, 12 January 1999

Hatillo -- the text says that the stripes are equal but in the image there is a thiner middle stripe. I made two images: No. 1 following the text (probably more reliable, if less telling) and No. 2 more like the image.
Thanh-Tâm Le, 12 January 1999

The flag at pueblos-de-puertorico.com site (defunct) is identical to the one at ,Lexjuris site so the discription on the last page must be erroneous.
Jarig Bakker, 1 Febuary 2000

The text at Lexjuris site says: "The flag consists of three equal stripes" , which is obviously not so.
Antonio Martins, 1 Febuary 2000

The most common error in those sites is unknowingly presenting the flag upside down, so inverting the colors in the vertical direction -we may see this in Hatillo
