Esquivias Assistant National Statistician National Censuses Service ISSN 0117-1453 FOREWORD The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) conducted the 2015 Census of Population (POPCEN 2015) in August 2015 primarily to update the country’s population and its demographic characteristics, such as the size, composition, and geographic distribution. Report No. 3 – Population, Land Area, and Population Density is among the series of publications that present the results of the POPCEN 2015. This publication provides information on the population size, land area, and population density by region, province, highly urbanized city, and city/municipality based on the data from population census conducted by the PSA in the years 2000, 2010, and 2015; and data on land area by city/municipality as of December 2013 that was provided by the Land Management Bureau (LMB) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). Also presented in this report is the percent change in the population density over the three census years. The population density shows the relationship of the population to the size of land where the population resides.

  • The Great History
    CAPAS The Great History Created in 1710, Capas is among the oldest towns of Tarlac together with Bamban (1710), Paniqui (1574) and Tarlac (1686). Its creation was justified by numerous settlements which were already established in the river banks of Cutcut River since the advent of the eighteenth century. The settlements belonged to the domain of Pagbatuan and Gudya; two sitios united by Capitan Mariano Capiendo when he founded the municipality. Historical records suggest three versions on how Capas got its name. The first version, as told, was originated from capas-capas, the “edible flower” similar to that of the caturay or the melaguas that abundantly grew along the Cutcut river banks. The second version, accordingly, was adapted from a “cotton tree” called capas, in Aeta dialect. The third version suggested that it was derived from the first three letters of the surnames of the town’s early settlers, namely: Capitulo, Capitly, Capiendo, Capuno, Caponga, Capingian, Caparas, Capera, Capunpue, Capit, Capil, Capunfuerza, Capunpun, Caputol, Capul and Capan. Assertively, they were called “caps” or “capas” in the local language. Between 1946-1951, registered barangays of Capas were Lawy, O’Donnell, Aranguren, Sto. Domingo, Talaga, Sta. Lucia, Bueno, Sta. Juliana, Sampucao, Calingcuan, Dolores and Manga, which were the 12 barrios during Late President Elpidio Quirino issued the Executive Order No. 486 providing “for the collection and compilation of historical data regarding barrios, towns, cities and provinces.” Today, Capas constitutes 20 barangays including all 12 except Calingcuan was changed to Estrada, Sampucao to Maruglu, Sto. Domingo was divided in two and barangays such as Sta.

It defines the desired spatial distribution of human activity in the country based on economic, social, institutional, and environmental conditions. The Plan espouses a national spatial strategy (NSS) that describes the geographic development challenges and opportunities in population and economic growth. The NSS provides the basis for policies on urban development, infrastructure development, disaster mitigation, and environmental resource protection and conservation. It recommends sustainable human settlements, efficient production, and effective service delivery systems. The key principles of spatial development are as follows: • Integration of leading and lagging areas and urban-rural linkages through transportation networks • Improvement of access to social services • Identification of locations of major infrastructure to maximize their benefits • Improvement of local, national, and international connectivity • Promotion of sustainable development and resiliency Economic and Demographic Trends The spatial distribution of population • Regions with established and large cities reflects the structure of the economy, (regional centers) are growing the fastest. characterized by varying concentrations of Notably, while the regional centers production and consumption in cities and are growing much faster than other municipalities, and in their respective host cities and municipalities, the National regions.

  • Pampanga River Basin: Flood of August 2004 (Southwest Monsoon As Enhanced by Typhoon Marce)
    PRB Flood: SW Monsoon due to T.Marce – Aug2004 Pampanga River Basin: Flood of August 2004 (Southwest Monsoon as enhanced by Typhoon Marce) Summary Typhoon Marce (August 20-24, 2004) became the first destructive tropical cyclone to affect the Pampanga River Basin for the year 2004. Widespread rains for more than 3 days spawned by the intensified southwest monsoon as enhanced by Typhoon Marce inundated extensive areas of the western and central sections of Luzon, including Metro Manila. As a result, 64 persons died, more than 2.1 million people affected, and an estimated damage cost of P 2.3 Billion in both agriculture and infrastructure were incurred. An investigative survey team of the Pampanga River Flood Forecasting and Warning Center (PRFFWC) composed of Messrs. Armando P. Taruc (Senior Weather. Specialist), Hilton T. Hernando (Weather Facilities Specialist II) and Pablito Villablanca (Weather Observer III), was dispatched to the Pampanga River Basin to take on the following tasks: 1. Conduct a post-flood survey from September 7 to 12, 2004, to assess and make scientific evaluation of the flooding in the area; 2. Coordinate with other concerned agencies (LGU’s and NGO’s) and entities on the conduct of the study in connection with the flooding event; and 3. To recommend measures focusing on the non-structural means to minimize and mitigate flood losses in both life and property. This disastrous flood is considered the major flood of 2004. A record high of river stage for Pampanga River at Arayat station and, likewise, a record water level for the Candaba Swamp area were attained during this event.
