Historically, the area has seen significant population growth and development, particularly in recent decades, leading to the expansion of settlements and infrastructure.

The economy of AncónCarabayllo is varied, with a mix of commercial activities, small businesses, and some industrial presence. Many residents commute to other parts of Lima for employment. The district's infrastructure includes roads, basic services, and some public facilities. Like many rapidly developing urban areas, AncónCarabayllo faces challenges related to urban planning, resource management, and the provision of adequate services to its growing population.

The district's name likely derives from a combination of geographical features or historical settlements.
