Climate

Climate typeClimate typePAGASA sorts the country's climate into four types by when the rain falls. Type I has a dry season from November to April and a wet one for the rest of the year; Type II has no dry season, with the most rain from December to February; Type III has a short dry season; Type IV has rain spread through the year.More in the glossary

Type III^[34]

No clear rainiest time of year, and a short dry season of one to three months, in December to February or in March to May.

Read by Scene off PAGASA's climate map, so approximate: the type that covers most of the place's land.

Life & Economy

About 21 of every 100 people lived below the poverty line in 2021.

Poverty, 2021Poverty incidenceHow many of every 100 people live in families whose income is below the poverty line: what a person needs in a year for food and other basic needs, as the PSA sets it for each province. It is an estimate, from a survey or, for a town, a statistical model, so the PSA gives a range it is likely to fall in.More in the glossary: 20.9% of people^[20]Below the poverty line, by the PSA's estimate for every town.
Income classIncome classThe Department of Finance sorts provinces, cities and municipalities into classes by their average yearly income over recent years: 1st class has the most. It measures the local government's income, not how well off its people are.More in the glossary: 2nd class^[4]

About 21 of every 100 people in Nabas lived below the poverty line in 2021 (20.9%)^[20]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 17.6% and 24.2%, with 90% confidence.

History & Identity

Stories from Western Visayas

Nabas has no Story of its own yet. This one is about Western Visayas, which Nabas is part of.

Western Visayas
Western Visayas: ten datus, two rivers
Legend says ten Bornean datus bought Panay for a golden hat. Iloilo, Aklan and Antique tell the legend with two different landing rivers, and its best-known book was finished in 1904.
This Happened Here

All Stories

Created: The town page says Nabas was formed as a municipality in 1854, taken from the Spanish-era municipality of Ibajay in Capiz. No law or order for this was found.^[9]

How it got its name

Local traditionThe town page says it was named Navas in 1854 after Governor Nava of Capiz, who came to inspect the area. The barangay history page says this was only alleged. The village before that was called Alimbo, after a river.^{[9, 11]}

The spelling Navas or Nabas varied until the Municipal Council passed a resolution in 1906 that adopted Nabas as the official name.^[9]

Its story

The earliest recorded date for Nabas is 1845, when it was a small village called Alimbo, named after a river whose delta it now occupies. It belonged to the municipality of Ibajay.^[9]

People in the western part of Ibajay spoke a different dialect from those in the east. Alimbo and its neighbouring barrios asked to be separated into their own municipality.^[9]

The new municipality was formed in 1854 and named Navas. Its first capitan, or mayor, served until 1860.^[9]

When the Philippine Commission cut the municipalities of Capiz from thirty-four to twenty-two in 1903, Nabas kept its boundaries unchanged.^[12]

Nabas became one of the seventeen municipalities of the new Province of Aklan in 1956.^[13]
