This was the third census of population that was undertaken in between two decennial censuses. Mid-decade censuses were previously conducted in 1995 and 2007. POPCEN 2015 was the 14th census of population in the country since the first census in 1903. POPCEN 2015 was designed primarily to take an inventory of the total population in the Philippines and collect basic information about its characteristics. It aimed to provide government executives, policy makers, and planners with population data, especially updated population counts of all barangays in the country, for use as bases in their social and economic development plans, policies, and programs. The census of population is the source of information on the size and distribution of the population, as well as its demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. These information are vital for making rational plans and programs for local and national development. The population sizes and their geographic distribution were presented in the regional volumes of POPCEN 2015 Report No. 1 (Population Count by Province, City/Municipality, and Barangay). The population counts down to barangay level were declared official for all purposes by former President Benigno S. Aquino III under Presidential Proclamation No. 1269 dated 13 May 2016. Report No. 1 also presents the household population size, number of households, and average household size (AHS) by city/municipality. Content and Coverage of this Publication This publication, POPCEN 2015 Report No. 2 (Demographic and Socioeconomic Characteristics) presents the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of the population, which were collected using the CP Form 2 (Household Questionnaire) and CP Form 4 (Institutional Population Questionnaire). Below are the data presented using total population: Age and sex distribution, Age and sex indicators, Marital status, Religious affiliation, and Highest grade/year completed. This report also presents the characteristics of the household population in terms of the following: Relationship to the household head, School attendance, Literacy, Overseas worker, and Usual activity/occupation. The POPCEN 2015 Report No. 2 is published by province and highly urbanized city (HUC), for a total of 105 publications, including the national volume. Philippine Statistics Authority ix Explanatory Text Authority to Conduct the POPCEN 2015 The authority and mandate of PSA to conduct the POPCEN 2015 emanates from Republic Act (RA) No. 10625 and Executive Order (EO) No. 352. RA No. 10625, also known as the Philippine Statistical Act of 2013, which was approved on September 12, 2013, states that “PSA shall be primarily responsible

    Chapter 5 Improved Infrastructure and Logistics Support I. REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES Davao Region still needs to improve its infrastructure facilities and services. While the Davao International Airport has been recently completed, road infrastructure, seaport, and telecommunication facilities need to be upgraded. Flood control and similar structures are needed in flood prone areas while power and water supply facilities are still lacking in the region’s remote and underserved areas. While the region is pushing for increased production of staple crops, irrigation support facilities in major agricultural production areas are still inadequate. Off-site infrastructure in designated tourism and agri-industrial areas are likewise needed to encourage investment and spur economic activities. Accessibility and Mobility through Transport There is a need for the construction of new roads and improvement of the existing road network to provide better access and linkage within and outside the Region as an alternate to existing arterial and local roads. The lack of good roads in the interior parts of the municipalities and provinces connecting to major arterial roads constrains the growth of agriculture and industry in the Region; it also limits the operations of transport services due to high maintenance cost and longer turnaround time. Traffic congestion is likewise becoming a problem in highly urbanized and urbanizing areas like Davao City and Tagum City. While the Region is physically connected with the adjoining regions in Mindanao, poor road condition in some major highways also hampers inter-regional economic activities. The expansion of agricultural activities in the resettlement and key production areas necessitates the opening and construction of alternative routes and farm-to-market roads.
