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[30]

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.

Life & Economy

About 23 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
23.0% 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
1st class[4]
About 23 of every 100 people in Estancia lived below the poverty line in 2021 (23.0%)[18]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 18.9% and 27.2%, with 90% confidence.

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

History & Identity

How it got its name

Sources differThe town's own history says the name is taken from the Spanish word for ranch, since the land had been part of a large ranch belonging to Don Felipe Aguilar.[10]

Sources differThe province page also traces the name to a ranch but names the owner as a wealthy Spaniard called Rodrigo who married a local woman.[11]

Its story

Estancia began as a fishing village, originally part of the pueblo of Carles, settled by fishing families from Capiz including those of Latinu Rodriguez and Juan Magbanua.[10]

In 1846 a ranchería was set up and a church built; in 1847 Estancia was declared a pueblo.[10]

Under American rule Estancia was reduced to a barrio of Balasan; local leaders campaigned for its independence and it regained municipal status, with Antonio Somes as first municipal president.[10]
