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[30]

Life & Economy

About 5 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
5.0% of people[18]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 5 of every 100 people in Currimao lived below the poverty line in 2021 (5.0%)[18]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 3.3% and 6.7%, with 90% confidence.

The PSA says caution must be observed in using this estimate: read it as a rough guide only.

History & Identity

How it got its name

Local traditionThe town page says Spanish watchtowers stood on the coast against Moro pirates. Watchers shouted a warning, 'correr', meaning to run, and the pirates were called 'cumaws'. The name Currimao is said to come from these two words.[10]

Its story

The town page says Currimao was a barrio of Paoay.[10]

It says the municipality came from a joint petition of the Union Obrera and the people of the barrios of Currimao, Pias, Maglaoi, Gaang and Pangil.[10]

It says settlement became permanent from 1895, when a tobacco company opened a trade line between Manila and Aparri that made Currimao an intermediate port.[10]

Executive Order No. 59 of 28 December 1920 made it a municipality, and it was inaugurated on 21 January 1921.[10]

Timeline

  1. 1895

    Permanent settlement began as a trading company opened a Manila to Aparri trade line.[10]

  2. 28 December 1920

    Executive Order No. 59 created the municipality of Currimao out of Paoay.[10]

  3. 21 January 1921

    Currimao was inaugurated as a municipality.[11]
