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 I[37]

Two seasons: dry from November to April, wet for the rest of the year, with the heaviest rain from June to September.

Economy, 2025Gross domestic productThe value of all the goods and services made in a place in a year: the size of its economy.

About 5 of every 1,000 people in Mandaluyong City lived below the poverty line in 2023 (0.5%)[24]

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