Mercedes Barros

Mercedes Barros is a long-time resident of Guasmo Sur, having lived in the area for over thirty years. As a widow and caretaker of her elderly mother with disabilities, she has invested significantly in her home and community. Recently, she has been in the news due to concerns over the expropriation of her property for the construction of the Quinto Puente, where she feels that the compensation offered does not reflect the true value of her home and the years of effort she has put into it.
