[edit] Boundaries

Bellavista is the only district in the Lima and Callao Metropolitan Area to have an almost perfect geometrical shape, as it is a rectangle where the southern border with both the district of San Miguel in the Lima Province and La Perla is marked by Avenida Venezuela.

On the north, Avenida Oscar Benavides (formerly known as Avenida Colonial) marks the district's border with the Callao District, which it also borders on the west in Jr. Andrés Santiago Vigil. On the east, the district ends at the Santiago Tábara Naval Hospital or the western perimeter of the National University of San Marcos, where the Lima Province (or more specifically, the Lima District) begins

[edit] Demographics

According to a 2002 estimate by the INEI, the district has 82,816 inhabitants and a population density of 18,161.4 persons/km².
