Counted from OpenStreetMap[3, 6]
As OpenStreetMap maps them on September 30, 2026. Each place is listed by where it stands on the map, inside the barangay's border on UN OCHA's map. Near that border, or when its own name says which barangay it belongs to, the address it gives decides. The border is a guide, so a place near the edge may stand in the barangay next door. A place on the shore whose point lies just past the border is given to the nearest barangay. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors, under the Open Database License.
