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[31]

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 16 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
15.9% of people[19]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
3rd class[4]
About 16 of every 100 people in Bakun lived below the poverty line in 2021 (15.9%)[19]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 12.2% and 19.5%, with 90% confidence.

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

History & Identity

Created
Listed among the municipal districts of the Mountain Province that Executive Order No. 42, signed 25 June 1963, declared to be municipalities (fifth class, counted from 1 July 1962). Bakun was therefore a municipal district before that order; the original creating act of the district was not found.[9]

Its story

The 1970 Benguet profile calls Bakun the fourth biggest town of Benguet by land area, at 28,550 hectares.[10]

Timeline

  1. 21 January 1936

    Executive Order No. 13 abolished the municipal district of Ampusungan and annexed it to Bakun as a barrio.[11]

  2. 25 June 1963

    Executive Order No. 42 declared the municipal district of Bakun a municipality.[9]
