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.

Life & Economy

About 4 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
3.6% 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 4 of every 100 people in Cainta lived below the poverty line in 2021 (3.6%)[21]

The PSA's model for every town puts it between 2.2% and 4.9%, with 90% confidence.

The PSA says caution must be observed in using this estimate: read it as a rough guide only.

History & Identity

Cainta's fiesta and days

Everything listed for Cainta in Now

How it got its name

Sources differThe town page says the name comes from a legend of "Ka Inta": "Ka" is a title of respect for elders and "Inta" is short for Jacinta, a rich and generous woman whom the people honoured by naming the town after her.[10]

Sources differThe same page gives a second explanation: the name comes from the two Tagalog words "Kain Ta".[10]

Its story

Before the Spaniards came, Cainta was a fortified, independent settlement on the river, ringed by bamboo groves, log walls and moats and armed with native cannons.[10]

In August 1571 Legazpi sent Juan de Salcedo to subdue Cainta. Its chief, Gat-Maitan, refused to submit, but the Spanish broke through the defences and Cainta was made a visita of Taytay under the Jesuits on 30 November 1571.[10]

When the British took Manila in 1762 they brought Indian soldiers, called sepoys. Some stayed in Cainta and settled among the people there.[10]

In 1903 Act 942 merged Cainta, with Angono, into the municipality of Taytay.[11]

Timeline

  1. 30 November 1571

    Cainta was made a visita of Taytay under the Jesuits after Salcedo's campaign.[10]
