Abstract: Abstract It is notable that the population of Puerto Rico had decreased in the last 10 years. For example, during the 1980s the population was 3.9 million and for 2012 estimated at 3.5 million. The decrease in population reflects important aspects about the deteriorating economy. Many Puerto Ricans migrate mainly to the United States in search of economic and employment opportunities. Data on gross national product per capita shows a nominal increase of $11,823.3 in 2001 to $18.872 in 2012. However, if we take the per capita gross national product at constant prices of 1954 reflected that in 2001 is $1,801.6 and 2012 was $1,750 showing a decrease.
