Description:	Since remote ancient times, a major concern of people on the North Coast of Peru has been to find a place to live in a landscape of arid mountains and valleys requiring constant irrigation to be productive (with consequent series of over water and land rights). Current strong demographic density in the region is a reflection of earlier patterns of occupation for river valleys and desert margins, a tendency emphasized by modern models of export agriculture and industrialization. Modern development of the North Coast has converted it into the second most important region of Peru in macroeconomic terms. The region is also a hub for international trade. Nevertheless those facts, a significant proportion of the rural and urban inhabitants of the area are still affected by low living standards, which include the lack of basic services, underemployment, and deficiencies in public education
