The Beverly Hills of Quito

12 years ago

My wife Nora went Cumbaya last night to celebrate 20 supervisor's that are retiring from the company called Petro Ecuador. After 30 years of service they are forcing many Mangers and Supervisors into retirement and replacing them with Cuban and Colombian workers that will work for 1/2 of there wages. They are building two new malls in that region and the average home in the North East corner will be no less than 400,000 dollars. Many Germans and Swiss already live there. If you have a taste for the good life and you would like to live with the Rich & Famous of Quito. This is the place for you...

Cumbayá is a rural parish of the Metropolitan District of Quito in the Pichincha Province, Ecuador. It is located east of Quito, in the Tumbaco Valley northwest of Ilaló volcano, in the valley of the San Pedro River, a tributary of the Guayllabamba River, at an elevation of approximately 2200 m (7200 ft) above sea level. Because it is at a lower altitude than Quito, it has a much warmer climate. In recent years, the parish has become a commuter town of Quito as a significant number of middle-upper and higher class families move from the city to live a more suburban lifestyle. This shift in population has brought in money to the area that boosted the local economy, as well as a number of private schools that are either new or transplanted from Quito, such as Colegio Alemán, Colegio Internacional SEK Los Valles, William Shakespeare School, Colegio Terranova, and CMSFQ (Colegio Menor San Francisco de Quito), among others.

It is also the home of the Universidad San Francisco de Quito, the first private and non-denominational university in Ecuador..................................
