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 III^[30]

No clear rainiest time of year, and a short dry season of one to three months, in December to February or in March to May.

Covers about 73 of every 100 parts of its land. Read by Scene off PAGASA's climate map, so approximate: the type that covers most of the place's land.

Life & Economy

About 21 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: 20.9% of people^[18]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: 1st class^[4]

About 21 of every 100 people in Kayapa lived below the poverty line in 2021 (20.9%)^[18]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 16.8% and 25.0%, with 90% confidence.

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

History & Identity

Stories from Cagayan Valley

Kayapa has no Story of its own yet. This one is about Cagayan Valley, which Kayapa is part of.

Cagayan Valley
Cagayan Valley: the cave and the giant province
A foot bone found in Callao Cave in 2007 led to Homo luzonensis, a human species named in 2019. The valley above was once one province covering all of northeast Luzon.
This Happened Here

All Stories

Created: Executive Order No. 368 of 11 November 1950 reorganized the province's municipalities and municipal districts into ten municipalities, Kayapa among them. The territory of the old Commandancia of Kayapa had been moved to Nueva Vizcaya in 1915, says the provincial page.^{[9, 10]}

How it got its name

Local traditionThe provincial page says the Commandante coined the name from two local words: Kalabao, meaning orange, and Yapa, meaning valley.^[10]

Its story

The town's own history says Kayapa was founded in 1754 by a Commandante named Dovilla, to spread Christianity and set up civil government among the non-Christian tribes.^[10]

On 23 January 1915 Nueva Vizcaya received the land of what had been the Commandancia of Kayapa, apart from the part in the Benguet watershed of the Agno River.^[10]

After liberation Kayapa was split into Pingkian and Kayapa. Pingkian was merged back into Kayapa under Executive Order No. 368 of 1950 and an election held on 5 December 1950.^{[9, 10]}
