This report provides updated data on the characteristics of the population and their housing units at the national, regional, provincial, and city/municipal levels. Specifically, this report presents the profile of the population with respect to age, sex, marital status, education and school attendance, place of school, overseas workers, usual occupation, and place of work. The report also contains housing data on construction materials of the roof and outer walls, and tenure status of the lot. The results of the POPCEN 2007 are useful data sources of government planners, policy makers, educators, administrators, and community leaders in crafting the country’s social and economic development plans and programs. The NSO acknowledges all the government agencies as well as private entities which have extended their invaluable assistance and support to make this undertaking successful. Utmost gratitude is likewise extended by the NSO to all the census respondents for their patience and cooperation in answering the questions and to all the hired census enumerators, hired supervisors, and NSO employees for their hard work and commitment to count every individual in the country. We salute all our census field workers for their joint efforts to make POPCEN 2007 a success. CARMELITA N.

This nationwide undertaking is the 12 th population census conducted in the country. POPCEN 2007 is designed to take an inventory of the total population in the Philippines and to collect information about their characteristics. The data provides an updated basis for the apportionment of the Internal Revenue Allocation (IRA) to local government units and creation of new legislative areas such as regions, provinces, municipalities, and barangays, or the conversion of a municipality into a city. The census of population is the source of information on the size and distribution of the population, as well as information about their demographic, social, and economic characteristics. These information are vital for making rational plans and programs towards national and local development. The final report on the population counts by barangay was declared official for all purposes by the President of the Philippines under Proclamation No. 1489 dated April 16, 2008. Authority to Conduct the POPCEN 2007 Under Commonwealth Act No. 591 , which was approved on August 19, 1940, the Bureau of the Census and Statistics (now NSO) is authorized to collect by enumeration, sampling or other methods, statistics and other information concerning the population and conduct, for statistical purposes, investigations and studies on the social and economic conditions of the country, among others. Census Coordinating Boards For POPCEN 2007, the creation of Regional Census Coordinating Board (RCCB), Provincial Census Coordinating Board (PCCB), and City/Municipal Census Coordinating Board (C/MCCB) was authorized by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) Resolution No. 7, Series of 2007. The Regional Directors (RDs), Provincial Statistics Officers (PSOs), and District Statistics Officers (DSOs) were responsible in organizing the RCCB, PCCB, and C/MCCB, respectively. These boards assisted NSO field staff in the conduct of the census at the subnational levels. The Regional Director of the National Economic and
