West Point, Monrovia

West Point is a township (the administrative equivalent of a city ward) of the Liberian capital city of Monrovia, located on a peninsula which juts out into the Atlantic Ocean between the Mesurado and Saint Paul rivers. Home to approximately 75,000 people, West Point is one of Monrovia's most densely populated slums.
Environmental degradation has gradually caused part of the peninsula to erode into the ocean. Endemic problems include overpopulation and diseases such as tuberculosis.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=West Point, Liberia: An environmental menace )
== History ==
An experiment in the 1970s to move people from West Point failed.〔 Residents returned despite squalid living conditions.〔 People moved back to fish and make a living as informal shopkeepers and service providers close to the city centre.〔( "LIBERIA: Disease rife as more people squeeze into fewer toilets", IRIN News, 19 November 2009. )〕
