Climate

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

Life & Economy

About 8 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
8.0% 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
4th class[4]
About 8 of every 100 people in San Nicolas lived below the poverty line in 2021 (8.0%)[20]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 5.7% and 10.3%, with 90% confidence.

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

History & Identity

Created
Republic Act No. 1229, approved 1 June 1955, separated eighteen barrios from Taal and made them the new municipality of San Nicolas. Its first officials were to be appointed by the President.[9]

How it got its name

The town's own Filipino-language history page says the name San Nicolas is the name of its patron saint, which was carried over to the new town.[11]

Its story

Before 1955 San Nicolas was a barrio of Taal. Its soil was fertile from Taal Volcano's eruptions, and settlers from nearby barrios such as Alas-as and Pulang Bato cleared hilly land for crops.[12]

In June 1954 a party in the barrio led local leaders to plan a new municipality. Taal's mayor opposed the move.[12]

Representative Apolinario Apacible filed a bill in Congress, and it became Republic Act No. 1229 on 1 June 1955.[12]

Officials appointed under the law, with Atty. Exequiel D. Caringal as mayor, were inducted on 9 August 1955, and the town began to govern itself.[12]
