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 III^[32]

No clear rainiest time of year, and a short dry season of one to three months, in December to February or in March to May.

Covers about 69 of every 100 parts of its land. Read by Scene off PAGASA's climate map, so approximate: the type that covers most of the place's land.

Life & Economy

About 14 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: 14.4% 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 14 of every 100 people in Aparri lived below the poverty line in 2021 (14.4%)^[20]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 11.2% and 17.7%, with 90% confidence.

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

How it got its name

A regional development council news item says the old name was Aparrian, and that it was shortened to Aparri after St. Peter Thelmo was chosen as patron.^[9]

Its story

Aparri sits where the Cagayan River meets the sea. A scholarly article says the river mouth shifted to Aparri before about 1600 and that its growth as a port seems to have started with a licence given in 1604.^[10]

The church government of Aparri began on 11 May 1680, when it was separated from Nueva Segovia, and St. Peter Thelmo became its patron.^[9]

In 1746 Aparri had 1,988 people, more than neighbouring Camalaniugan or Buguey.^[10]

On 7 June 1771 a pirate fleet of 21 vessels sailed into Aparri after raiding the Babuyan Islands.^[10]

Act No. 944 of 1903 enlarged Aparri with two barrios taken from Buguey, Mala and Paddaya.^[11]

In December 1941 Japanese forces landed at Aparri a few days after the attack on Pearl Harbor.^[12]
