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 II[32]

No dry season. The rain is heaviest from December to February, and no month is truly dry.

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
21.3% 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
1st class[4]
About 21 of every 100 people in Malilipot lived below the poverty line in 2021 (21.3%)[20]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 17.4% and 25.2%, with 90% confidence.

The PSA rates this estimate's reliability as acceptable rather than high: read it as a guide.

History & Identity

How it got its name

Sources differOne version in the town's own history says Spaniards arrived in the cold month of December, and natives heard them say "Muy Frio", which they turned into "malipot", meaning cold.[10]

Sources differAnother version says the town was called "Malipod", meaning protected, because the mountain ranges shield it from Mayon Volcano's eruptions.[10]

Its story

The town's own history places Malilipot among the towns set up one after another after Juan de Salcedo founded Libon in the 1570s.[10]

The town says its name has several confusing versions, and it names the Toktokan and Bulakawan ranges as its shield from Mayon lava.[10]

Today it is called a minor growth centre and a satellite town of Tabaco City.[10]

Timeline

  1. 9 January 1907

    Act No. 1582 lists Malilipot among the municipalities of the First Assembly District of Albay.[11]

  2. 20 June 1957
