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[33]

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

Read by Scene off PAGASA's climate map, so approximate: the type that covers most of the place's land.

Life & Economy

About 11 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
10.5% of people[21]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 11 of every 100 people in Lubao lived below the poverty line in 2021 (10.5%)[21]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 9.0% and 12.0%, with 90% confidence.

History & Identity

Its story

Lubao had an Augustinian church from 1572, first built in Barrio Santa Catalina.[10]

Floods made the friars move the church to its present site about thirty years later.[10]

Fr. Antonio Herrera built the present brick church from 1614 to 1630.[10]

By the 1630s Lubao was one of six Pampanga convents with a vote in the Augustinian chapter.[11]

A later Augustinian account lists Lubao among the sixteen convents and doctrinas the order held in Pampanga.[12]

In 1903 the Philippine Commission left Lubao's boundaries unchanged when it merged other Pampanga towns.[13]

The church was occupied by revolutionists in 1898, served American forces as a hospital in 1899, and was shelled by the Japanese in 1942.[10]
