Life & Economy

About 6 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
5.5% of people[16]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
2nd class[4]
About 6 of every 100 people in Sarrat lived below the poverty line in 2021 (5.5%)[16]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 4.2% and 6.9%, with 90% confidence.

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

History & Identity

Its story

The church marker records the arrival of the first missionaries at Sarrat on the feast of San Miguel, 29 September 1724, and calls the church the Church of San Miguel.[9]

A first convent built in 1769 served as a temporary church, and the church and tower were built in 1779.[9]

According to the marker, fire destroyed the convent on 16 March 1816, a new convent was finished in May 1817, it burned again on 18 October 1882, and a third was completed in June 1896.[9]

The 1958 marker was lost after a 1983 earthquake damaged the church facade.[9]
