Best Answer

Puerto Rico is not a US district, Puerto Rico is a commonwealth of the U.S.A., but Puerto Rico is self governing, Puerto Rico has its own laws, senators, and leaders that are elected by the Puerto Rican people. Puerto Rico can make its own laws without approval of the US government. Puerto Rico also speaks Spanish, only 1 out of 10 people on the island speak somewhat English, that means only 15% of the people there are fluent in English.
