Map 5: Map of Jamaica showing the distribution and land capability classification of squatter settlements. 40
Of the five hundred and eighty five (585) mapped squatter settlements in Jamaica, thirty eight percent (38%) are on arable lands, thirty-five percent (35%) on marginal lands and three percent (3%) on urban lands. There was no data for the remaining twenty-four percent (24%) (figure 9). Arable lands are those that are fit for cultivation while marginal lands are difficult to cultivate and have very little yields. Figure 9 Land Capability of Squatter Settlements in Jamaica 3% 24% 35% 38% Arable Marginal Urban No data St. Elizabeth has the largest percentage of squatter settlements located on arable lands with sixty five percent (65%) occupying arable lands. This is followed by Clarendon with sixty four percent (64%) and St. Catherine with sixty one percent (61%). Trelawny has the smallest percentage of squatter settlements with seven percent (7%) on arable lands. The second smallest percentage of squatter settlements on arable lands is Kingston and St. Andrew with fourteen percent (14%) (See Figure 10). 41
