Life & Economy

About 48 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
48.1% of people[15]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

About 48 of every 100 people in Datu Blah T. Sinsuat lived below the poverty line in 2021 (48.1%)[15]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 38.1% and 58.2%, with 90% confidence.

History & Identity

Created
Muslim Mindanao Autonomy Act No. 198 created the Municipality of Datu Blah T. Sinsuat out of twelve barangays of Upi. It needed approval in a plebiscite before taking effect. The published page leaves its approval date blank.[9]

Its story

Datu Blah T. Sinsuat was carved out of Upi by a regional autonomy act of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao. The act named the poblacion at Barangay Kinimi.[9]

The new town was to gain legal existence only when its first mayor and a majority of its Sangguniang Bayan were appointed and qualified.[9]

Its land area was given as 14,721 hectares, or 147.21 square kilometres, and Upi kept its legal existence.[9]

Changes since 1977
