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

Life & Economy

Makati City's economy made ₱1.54 trillion of goods and services in 2025, ₱5,200,593 for each person. About 1 of every 100 people lived below the poverty line in 2023.

Economy, 2025Gross domestic productThe value of all the goods and services made in a place in a year: the size of its economy. The PSA measures it for every region, province and highly urbanized city. Counted at 2018 prices, it leaves out the rise in prices, so one year can be set beside another.More in the glossary: ₱1.54 trillion^[19]Its gross domestic product at current prices; ₱1.27 trillion at 2018 prices.

Poverty, 2023Poverty 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: 1.0% of people^[22]Below the poverty line, by the PSA's survey.
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^[5]

About 1 of every 100 people in Makati City lived below the poverty line in 2023 (1.0%)^[22]

The PSA's survey puts it between 0.0% and 2.1%, with 95% confidence. The poverty line was ₱37,711 a person for the year.

The PSA notes: Those with CVs higher than 10% in 2023 poverty incidence among population should be used with caution.

Government & Leaders

A mayor leads Makati City. Its local laws, called ordinances, are passed by the Sangguniang Panlungsod (the city council), led by the vice mayor. The mayor, the vice mayor and the council's elected members serve three-year terms, and none may serve more than three in a row.^{[14, 15]}

Each district elects one member of the House of Representatives. These are the districts as the laws drew them for the 2025 elections.

Leaders

The mayor and vice mayor elected at each election since 2001, as COMELEC's lists of the elected name them, and those in office now, as the DILG's directory lists them.
