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[34]

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

Taguig City's economy made ₱836.4 billion of goods and services in 2025, ₱611,724 for each person. About 3 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

1st class[5]
About 3 of every 100 people in Taguig City lived below the poverty line in 2023 (3.2%)[22]

The PSA's survey puts it between 1.7% and 4.7%, 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.
