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.

Read by Scene off PAGASA's climate map, so approximate: the type that covers most of the place's land.

Life & Economy

About 15 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
14.8% of people[21]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 15 of every 100 people in San Manuel lived below the poverty line in 2021 (14.8%)[21]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 11.7% and 18.0%, with 90% confidence.

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

History & Identity

Created
Republic Act No. 2048, approved on 23 June 1957, created the Municipality of Callang in Isabela from barrios of Roxas. Republic Act No. 4600, approved on 19 June 1965, changed its name to San Manuel.[9, 10]

How it got its name

Local traditionThe town was first called Callang. Its own history page says the name is believed to come from a native word for the molave, a hardwood tree.[12]

Republic Act No. 4600 changed the name from Callang to San Manuel on 19 June 1965. The town's history page says the new name honors the fifth President of the Philippines, Manuel A. Roxas.[10, 12]

Its story

The town's history page says pioneers from Central Luzon settled the area in the early 1920s. Callang was then a barrio of Gamu.[12]

In 1948 Roxas was organized out of Gamu, and Callang became one of its barrios.[12]

Local leaders petitioned for Callang to become a town because of its rapid growth, and in 1957 Republic Act No. 2048 separated Callang and eight other barrios from Roxas.[9, 12]

The first mayor, vice mayor and councilors were to be appointed by the President. The town's page says the municipal government was inaugurated on 12 October 1957 with its seat at Barrio Callang.[9, 12]

Callang was renamed San Manuel in 1965, and in 1969 Republic Act No. 5869 added the barrios of Villanueva and Sandiat, taken from Roxas.[10, 13]
