The three parishes of Manuel Manrique, Rafael María Baralt, and Rafael Urdaneta represent different communities within the municipal boundaries.

The municipal territory connects through a network of intercommunal avenues, facilitating transportation between different sectors and neighboring municipalities.

The municipality sits at 6 meters below sea level, featuring dry forest landscapes and substantial petroleum extraction facilities at Tía Juana Tierra.
