How the comparison is kept fair

223 of the 569 barangays in Northern Samar can be compared. The other 346 are left out.

  • Only places with at least 1,000 people in the 2020 census are ranked, so a village that gained a few families does not top the list.
  • A place is ranked only if the same place was counted in both censuses. Scene leaves out a place the PSA's list of changes shows as created, divided, merged or given a new code since the 2020 census, a place another one was carved out of, and a place with no 2020 count.
  • The PSA's data carries no field that flags a changed border by itself; Scene reads the change list and the notes to each count, so a border change the PSA has not listed cannot be seen here.

The change is the percent difference between the two counts, as Scene works it out.

Every count here is the PSA's own, for the place as the PSA names it today. The change and the order are Scene's arithmetic on those counts. How Scene works out the rest.
