Life & Economy

About 19 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: 18.5% 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: 3rd class^[4]

About 19 of every 100 people in Basista lived below the poverty line in 2021 (18.5%)^[18]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 14.9% and 22.2%, with 90% confidence.

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

Stories from Ilocos Region

Basista has no Story of its own yet. This one is about Ilocos Region, which Basista is part of.

Film, 1:00
Ilocos Region
Ilocos: our dialect, salt and a union
The oldest name of the Ilocos is said to mean 'our dialect'. One Ilocos split in 1818, La Union was named in 1850, and Pangasinan is said to mean 'where salt is made'.
Why It's Called That

All Stories

Created: Executive Order No. 446, dated 5 September 1961, created the municipality of Basista from barrios of San Carlos, Bayambang and Malasiqui. Republic Act No. 4866, approved 8 May 1967, declared it a duly constituted municipality as of that date.^{[9, 10]}

Its story

Basista was a barrio of San Carlos before becoming a town.^[11]

The President created the town by Executive Order No. 446 on the Provincial Board's recommendation. It was to begin once its officials qualified and the Finance Secretary certified it financially capable.^[9]

The provincial page says the Supreme Court later declared the order illegal. Congress then passed Republic Act No. 4866 to confirm the town.^{[10, 11]}
