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[31]

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

Life & Economy

About 17 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
17.3% of people[19]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
4th class[4]
About 17 of every 100 people in Sabangan lived below the poverty line in 2021 (17.3%)[19]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 13.2% and 21.5%, with 90% confidence.

The PSA rates this estimate's reliability as acceptable rather than high: read it as a guide.

History & Identity

Created
Executive Order No. 42 declared Sabangan, with other municipal districts of the Mountain Province, to be a municipality. The order counted the change from 1 July 1962 and set it in the fifth class.[9, 10]

Its story

Sabangan was a municipal district of the Mountain Province before it was a municipality. A 1957 order ranked it in the 1st class among the Mountain Province districts.[11]

In 1963 an executive order declared Sabangan a municipality along with many other Mountain Province districts; the Bontoc town website names Bontoc, Besao, Bauko, Natonin, Sadanga and Tadian among them.[9, 10]

Republic Act No. 4695 of 18 June 1966 split the old Mountain Province into four provinces. Sabangan was named among the municipalities that stayed in the Mountain Province.[12]

The 1903 census report describes an old Spanish trail, in bad shape by then, that branched off the main trail at Sabangan and climbed over the central divide to Sapao.[13]
