Housing Development Villa Hermosa in Diriamba, Nicaragua

The country Nicaragua is one of  the five countries of  Central America,  located in the  tropical area of the  Northern Hemisphere,  the climate of its  southern area being  hot-humid. The  country has some  130,000 km2with a  population of about  4,5 million. Diriamba  is a small town 40  kms south of  Nicaragua’s Capital  Managua. Its great  advantage is the  climate. Located on a  hill in the midst of  coffee farms, it is  much cooler than  stuffy hot Managua  and, therefore, an  attractive place to  live, in spite of its  rather rural setting.
