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 IV[34]

Rain spread fairly evenly through the year, with no dry season.

Covers about 91 of every 100 parts of its land. Read by Scene off PAGASA's climate map, so approximate: the type that covers most of the place's land.

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
31.5% of people[22]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 31 of every 100 people in Calubian lived below the poverty line in 2021 (31.5%)[22]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 28.0% and 34.9%, with 90% confidence.

Its story

The National Historical Commission says Calubian began as a parish settlement under Spanish rule and grew into an agricultural and trading center on the north coast of Leyte.[9]

A law of 1959 provided for a twenty-five-bed Calubian Hospital. In 1961 the Calubian Emergency Hospital became the Northwestern Leyte General Hospital.[10, 11]

In 1959 the municipality itself was granted a franchise of twenty-five years to run its own electric light and power system.[12]

Congress turned sitios of Calubian into barrios in 1968 and created more barrios there in 1969.[13, 14]
