Life & Economy

About 18 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: 17.9% of people^[20]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: 2nd class^[4]

About 18 of every 100 people in San Carlos City lived below the poverty line in 2021 (17.9%)^[20]

Everything listed for San Carlos City in Now

Official name: City of San Carlos^[4]

How it got its name

Local traditionThe older name of the town was Binalatongan, which the province says came from balatong, the Pangasinan word for mung bean, once plentiful there.^[10]

The town was renamed San Carlos after an order of King Carlos III of Spain, which also called for Binalatongan to be razed.^[10]

Its story

Before it was San Carlos, the town was called Binalatongan, which the province describes as the capital of the old Caboloan kingdom.^[10]

The provincial page ties the Spanish defeats in the revolts of 1660 and 1762 to the royal order to raze the town and rename it San Carlos.^[10]

In 1903 the Philippine Commission left San Carlos with its existing boundaries when it merged many Pangasinan towns.^[11]

The municipality was later split, and one part became the town of Basista.^{[10, 12]}

The larger part became the City of San Carlos under Republic Act No. 4487 of 1965.^[10]

Since 2001 the city has held an annual Mango-Bamboo Festival in the last week of April.^[10]
