Life & Economy

About 31 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: 30.7% 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: 1st class^[4]

About 31 of every 100 people in Alangalang lived below the poverty line in 2021 (30.7%)^[16]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 27.0% and 34.4%, with 90% confidence.

Everything listed for Alangalang in Now

How it got its name

Local traditionAlangalang is said to come from a mix-up: a friar asked villagers stuck at a creek, too wide to leap and too deep to wade, for the name of the place, and they answered "hi-alang" (their difficulty crossing); the name stuck.^[9]

Its story

The town's own history says that when the Spaniards came there was already a settlement at a hilly place called Bukid along the Mainit River.^[9]

The settlers later moved across the Mainit River to a place now called Binongto-an, which the river often flooded.^[9]
