Eric,
 
Yes, the kilometer is the measurement unit used for the roads system here.  Primary and secondary state roads (usually two- or four-lanes) connecting the towns have hectometer markers; that's why you might find rural addresses given as "Carr. xyz, km. xy.z".  If you see "interior" or "int.", it means the address is found off the main, on a branching road.
 
By the way, gasoline is sold by the liter.

Subject: MI miles or kilometers

quick question... does Puerto Rico always use KM? I have
addresses with KM markers so I assume it is kilometers?
 
then for reference: Is the U.S. the only country using miles?
How about the British? Hawaii must be miles?
 
Thanks!
Eric
