There is also a Bush Lot in Corentyne which exhibits some of the main characteristics of BushLot in West berbice. The population is mainly Indian. In the past rice production was the main crop. It has a secondary school, a health centre and a horse race track. There was a cinemaas well, though I dont know whether it is still functioning in view of the prevalence of television.

I believe there is also another Bush Lot along the Essequibo coast.
