Did Colombia rid itself of slums true or false?

True.

In the 1800s, slums called tugurios were proliferating in Bogotá. The number of barrios—illegal housing subdivisions on the city’s outskirts—doubled between 1951 and 1964, and by 1993 some 59% of Bogotá residents were living below the poverty line. But, by the 2010s, Bogotá’s hillside slums were largely gone, replaced by a patchwork of modest, government-built homes and apartment buildings. Colombia’s poverty rate had also been cut in half.
