Culebra barrio-pueblo or Culebra Pueblo (English: Culebra Town, historically: Dewey) is a barrio and the administrative center (seat) of Culebra, an island-municipality of Puerto Rico. Its population in 2010 was 462.[1][5][6][7]

As was customary in Spain, in Puerto Rico, the municipality has a barrio called pueblo which contains a central plaza, the municipal buildings (city hall), and a Catholic church. Fiestas patronales (patron saint festivals) are held in the central plaza every year.[8][9]
