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 I[29]

Two seasons: dry from November to April, wet for the rest of the year, with the heaviest rain from June to September.

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

Life & Economy

About 27 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
27.2% of people[17]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 27 of every 100 people in Bugasong lived below the poverty line in 2021 (27.2%)[17]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 23.9% and 30.6%, with 90% confidence.

History & Identity

Created
A National Historical Institute marker (1992) says Bugasong was formally founded as a town under the patronage of Santo Nino in 1700.[9]

Its story

The marker says Bugasong became an encomienda of Pedro Guillen in 1591 and that Augustinian missionaries formally began evangelization there in 1596.[9]

It says Bugasong was a visita of Hamtic at the start of the 17th century before being formally founded as a town in 1700.[9]

The town's own trivia page says the first Catholic church was built in 1726 by Friar Felix Rioja, the first parish priest.[11]

The town's own page says Moro pirates plundered the town and that its Augustinian parish priest trained able-bodied men to fight them.[11]

Sources differThe sources disagree on when Bugasong was the capital of Antique: the NHCP marker gives 1790 to 1800 and calls it Provincia de Bugasong.[9]

Sources differThe town's own trivia page instead says Bugasong was the capital (cabecera) of Antique in 1778, and that in 1774 it was made a province with Cagayancillo under it.[11]
