Life & Economy

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
12.3% of people[22]Below the poverty line, by the PSA's estimate for every town.

1st class[4]
About 12 of every 100 people in Noveleta lived below the poverty line in 2021 (12.3%)[22]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 9.4% and 15.3%, with 90% confidence.

History & Identity

Noveleta's fiesta and days

Everything listed for Noveleta in Now

Created
The town's own website says Noveleta was made an independent pueblo on 5 January 1868 by Governor-General Jose de la Gandara. Before that it was a barrio of Kawit and part of Cavite City. No law is cited for this.[9]

How it got its name

Local traditionA local legend says a girl named Violeta, promised to a Spanish officer against her will, killed herself before the wedding. The officer cried out "Madre de Dios, no Violeta!", and the phrase became Noveleta.[9]

Its story

Noveleta began as a barrio of Kawit (Cavite el Viejo) and part of Cavite City. The Spaniards called it Tierra Alta, meaning higher ground, and it was also called Nueva Lete and Nueva Isla.[9]

Noveleta became an independent pueblo on 5 January 1868.[9]

The Magdiwang Council of the Katipunan had its seat in Noveleta, whose revolutionary name was Magdiwang.[9]

On 31 August 1896 Mariano Alvarez, who founded and presided over the Sangguniang Bayan Magdiwang, led the capture of the Noveleta Tribunal.[9]

The 1896 uprising in Cavite began at Noveleta, San Francisco de Malabon and Cavite el Viejo (Kawit).[11]

In 1903 Act No. 947 merged Cavite Viejo and Rosario into Noveleta. In 1907 Act No. 1718 separated Cavite Viejo again, renamed Kawit, and left Noveleta with the territory of Noveleta and Rosario.[12, 13]
