FOREWORD The 2007 Census of Population (POPCEN 2007) Report No. 2 is one of the several publications prepared by the National Statistics Office (NSO) to disseminate the results of the POPCEN 2007. 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.

EXPLANATORY TEXT

In August 2007, the National Statistics Office (NSO) conducted the 2007 Census of Population (POPCEN 2007). This nationwide undertaking is the 12th 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 Development Authority (NEDA) was the Chairperson of the RCCB with the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) as Vice Chairperson. The Regional Administrator/Director/Officer/

The Station Commander, Municipal Planning and Development Officer, Municipal Civil Registrar, Municipal Population Officer, Municipal Agriculturist, and a representative from the private sector acted as members. The DSO of NSO served as the EO of C/MCCB. POPCEN 2007 Field Organization The NSO is the agency mandated to formulate and execute plans for the POPCEN 2007. All matters pertaining to POPCEN 2007 were coordinated and monitored by the Household Statistics Department (HSD) under the direction and instructions of the Administrator. The planning and preparatory activities for all aspects of the census were undertaken by HSD in close coordination with the Information Resources Department (IRD) and General Administration Department (GAD). A Steering Committee created for POPCEN 2007 provided directions on the major activities of the nationwide undertaking. Chaired by the Administrator and co-chaired by the Deputy Administrator, it was comprised of the Directors of HSD, IRD, GAD, Industry and Trade Statistics Department (ITSD), Division Chiefs of HSD, and selected Central Office (CO) Division Chiefs. The Census Planning and Operations Division (CPOD) served as Secretariat to the Steering Committee.

The POPCEN 2007 Census Project Staff (CPS 2007), headed by the HSD Director served as the monitoring hub and communications and action center of the census. The RD was responsible for the coordination, monitoring, and supervision of the operations in all provinces within his/her region. He/she was also responsible for the supervision of the staff of POPCEN 2007 Regional Data Processing Center (RDPC 2007). The RDPC 2007, which was in-charged in the computer processing of census returns, was under the technical supervision of IRD in consultation with HSD. Parallel to the RDPC 2007, the POPCEN 2007 Central Data Processing Center (CDPC 2007) was set up at CO with the direct supervision of IRD. The PSO, together with the POPCEN 2007 Provincial Project Staff (PPS 2007), was responsible for the allocation and control of census forms, Project Monitoring System (PMS) operations, as well as the manual processing of census returns and transmittal of forms to RDPC 2007. The DSO, on the other hand, was responsible for the supervision, monitoring, and coordination of the cities/municipalities under his/her district. During the field enumeration, five hired Enumerators (ENs) were supervised by a Team Supervisor (TS), and a group of seven TSs was supervised by a Census Area Supervisor (CAS). The CAS designated in each municipality was either an SCO of NSO or a hired personnel. Method of Enumeration

The gathering of population and housing data was performed by census ENs through house-to-house visit and interview of a responsible member of each household. The household was treated as the enumeration unit. Moreover, a complete listing of buildings, living quarters (including vacant ones), and households was done. The households were interviewed using Census of Population (CP) Form 2 – Household Questionnaire (Appendix D). The items asked for the population were household membership, relationship to household head, sex, date of birth, age as of last birthday, birth registration, marital status, school attendance, current grade/year in school, place of school, highest grade/year completed, whether or not a person was an overseas worker, usual occupation, and place of work.

For the housing portion, the questions asked were construction materials of the outer walls and roof and the tenure status of the lot where the building or housing unit was built. Questions for households residing in temporary relocation areas such as the date when the household moved to the temporary relocation area, place of previous residence, and whether the household had intention of residing in their previous residence were also included in this census.

Institutional population were enumerated using CP Form 4 – Institutional Population Questionnaire (Appendix F). In this questionnaire, the items asked were the type of institutional living quarter (ILQ), residence status, sex, date of birth, age as of last birthday, birth registration, marital status, and highest grade/year completed. Information about Filipinos working in Philippine embassies and foreign countries were also gathered using CP Form 7.

Place Where Enumerated All persons were enumerated in their usual place of residence, or the geographic place (street, barangay, city/municipality, and province) where the person usually resides. Filipinos working in Philippine embassies, consulates, and missions abroad were also enumerated. CP Form 7, the Household Self-Administered Questionnaire (Appendix E) was sent to them through the DFA.

Publications for POPCEN 2007 The results of POPCEN 2007 will be made available in different media. Reports, publications, as well as electronic data files will be prepared for the various needs of data users. There are six publications for POPCEN 2007, namely:

Report No. 1 - Population by Province, City/Municipality, and Barangay Report No. 2 - Demographic and Housing Characteristics Report No. 3 - Population, Land Area, and Density Report No. 4 - Urban Population

Report No. 5 - Institutional Population Report No. 6 - Barangay Characteristics POPCEN 2007 Report No. 2 will be published in two volumes. Volume I is by

province and highly urbanized city while Volume II will have the same contents as in Volume I, except that it has urban-rural disaggregation and will be made available only at the national level.

Aside from the published tables from these reports, other statistical tables will be

made available to users in computer printouts and compact discs (CDs).

Coverage and Contents of this Publication This report contains 14 tables on population and six tables on housing

characteristics. Population data includes relationship to household head, sex, age as of

last birthday, marital status, current school attendance, current grade/year in school, place of school, highest grade/year completed, whether a person was an overseas worker or not, usual occupation, and place of work. Housing data, on the other hand, includes occupied housing units, construction materials of the roof, construction materials of the outer walls, and tenure status of the lot. The data for this publication were generated from the accomplished CP Form 2 and CP Form 7 questionnaires of POPCEN 2007. Aside from the report for the Philippines, a separate report is published for each province and highly urbanized city. The data for the cities and municipalities of Metropolitan Manila are included in the volume for the National Capital Region (NCR). Definition of Terms and Concepts Barangay A barangay is the smallest political unit in the country. Generally, one barangay was assigned to one EN during the enumeration. However, to facilitate complete census coverage, a large barangay is usually divided into parts and each part is referred to as an enumeration area (EA). For purposes of POPCEN 2007, the official list of barangays used was as of March 2007. This list, which was prepared by the Technical Working Group on Geographic Classification with member-representatives from NEDA, NSCB, DILG, Commission on Elections (COMELEC), and NSO, was the basis of geographic codes utilized in the census. For the publication reports of this census, however, the official list of barangays used was as of December 2007, with a total of 41,995 barangays. Usual place of residence The term refers to the geographic place (street, barangay, city/municipality, or province) where the enumerated person usually resides. As a rule, it is the place where he/she sleeps most of the time. Hence, it may be the same as or different from the place where he/she was found at the time of the census. Household A household is a social unit consisting of a person living alone or a group of persons who sleep in the same housing unit and have a common arrangement in the preparation and consumption of food.

In most cases, a household consists of persons who are related by kinship ties, like parents and their children. In some instances, several generations of familial ties are represented in one household while, still in others, even more distant relatives are included as members of the household.

Explanatory Text

National Statistics Office, POPCEN 2007 xiv

Household helpers, boarders, and nonrelatives are considered as members of the household provided they sleep in the same housing unit and have common arrangement for the preparation and consumption of food and do not usually go home to their family at least once a week. A group of unrelated individuals, as in the case of a group of students or workers who decide to rent a place and make common arrangement for the preparation and consumption of their food, constitutes one household. Institutional population

Institutional population is comprised of persons who are found living in institutional living quarters (ILQs). They may have their own families or households elsewhere but at the time of the census, they are committed or confined in institutions, or they live in ILQs and are usually subject to a common authority or management, or are bound by either a common public objective or a common personal interest. The following were considered as ILQs:

1. Hotels, motels, inns, dormitories, pensions, and other lodging houses which provide lodging on a fee basis;

2. Hospitals, sanitaria, and rehabilitation centers; 3. Orphanages and homes for the aged; 4. Seminaries, convents, nunneries, boarding schools, and other religious

training centers; 5. Corrective and penal institutions; 6. Military camps and barracks; 7. Logging, mining, and construction/public work camps; 8. Oceangoing and interisland/coastal vessels at port; and 9. Refugee camps.

Persons enumerated as members of a household

The following individuals were included as members of a household:

1. Persons who are present and whose usual place of residence is the housing unit where the household lives;

2. Family members who are overseas workers and who are away for not more than five years from the date of departure at the time of the census;

3. Persons whose usual place of residence is the place where the household lives but are temporarily away at the time of the census for any of the following reasons: a. on vacation, business/pleasure trip, or training somewhere in the

Philippines and are expected to be back within six months from the date of departure;

Explanatory Text

b. on vacation, business/pleasure trip, or studying/training abroad and are expected to be back within a year from the date of departure;

c. working or attending school in some other place but come home at least once a week;

d. confined in hospitals for a period of not more than six months at the time of enumeration, except when they are confined as inmates or patients in tuberculosis pavilions, mental hospitals, leprosaria or leper colonies, drug rehabilitation centers, and others;

e. detained in national/provincial/city/municipal jails or military camps for a period of not more than six months at the time of enumeration;

f. on board coastal, interisland, or fishing vessels within Philippine territories; and

g. on board oceangoing vessels but are expected to be back within five years from the date of departure.

4. Boarders/lodgers of the household or employees of household-operated businesses who do not usually return/go to their respective homes weekly;

5. Citizens of foreign countries, excluding members of diplomatic missions and non-Filipino members of international organizations, but including Filipino balikbayans who have resided or are expected to reside in the Philippines for at least a year from their arrival; and

6. Persons temporarily staying with the household who have no usual place of residence or who are not certain to be enumerated elsewhere.

The following persons were enumerated as members of the ILQ: 1. Permanent lodgers in boarding houses; 2. Dormitory residents who do not go home at least once a week; 3. Hotel residents who have stayed for more than six months at the time of the

census; 4. Boarders in residential houses, provided that their number is 10 or more; 5. Patients in hospitals who are confined for more than six months; 6. Wards in orphanages; 7. Inmates of penal colonies or prison cells; 8. Seminarians, nuns in convents, and monks; 9. Soldiers residing in military camps; and 10. Workers in mining and similar camps.

The following persons were excluded as members of the ILQ but were included

in the households to which they belong: 1. Military officials/enlisted men or draftees (and members of their households)

who have housing units within military installations or camps;

Explanatory Text

National Statistics Office, POPCEN 2007 xvi

2. Managers (and members of their households) of refugee camps, dormitories, hotels, hospitals, and others, who occupy and regularly use as their place of abode living quarters in the institutions that they manage; and

3. Priests who, together with their relatives and/or household help, occupy and regularly use as their place of abode a living quarter in the church or seminary.

Persons excluded from the enumeration The following persons were excluded from the enumeration even if they were within the territorial jurisdiction of the Philippines at the time of the census enumeration:

1. Foreign ambassadors, ministers, consuls, or other diplomatic representatives, and members of their families (except Filipino and non-Filipino employees who have been residents of the Philippines prior to the said employment);

2. Citizens of foreign countries living within the premises of an embassy, legation, chancellery, or consulate;

3. Citizens of foreign countries who are chiefs or officials of international organizations like the United Nations (UN), International Labor Organization (ILO), Asian Development Bank (ADB), Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) who are subject to reassignment to other countries after their tour of duty in the Philippines, and members of their families;

4. Citizens of foreign countries, together with non-Filipino members of their families, who are students or who are employed, or have business in the Philippines but who are expected to stay in the country for less than a year from their arrival;

5. Citizens of foreign countries and Filipinos with usual place of residence in a foreign country who are visiting the Philippines and who have stayed or are expected to stay in the country for less than a year from their arrival;

6. Citizens of foreign countries in refugee camps/vessels; and 7. Residents of the Philippines on vacation, pleasure or business trip, study or

training abroad who have been away or are expected to be away from the Philippines for more than one year from their departure.

Persons working for them or living with them were also enumerated based on the

rules of enumeration. Respondent A respondent is any responsible member of the household who furnished the information or answered the questions during the interview.

National Statistics Office, POPCEN 2007 xvii

Head of the household The head of the household is an adult person who is responsible for the organization and care of the household or who is regarded as such by the members of the household. In the case of a household consisting of two or more unrelated persons sharing the same cooking facilities and meals, the head is usually the eldest male or female in the group regarded as such by the other members. Relationship to the household head Data on relationship to the head of the household provides an indication of the typical relationship among household members. Each member of the household has a specific relationship to the head by virtue of his presence in the household. Such relationship may or may not be based on kinship. The members of the household are classified as follows: Head Spouse Son Daughter Stepson Stepdaughter Son-in-law Daughter-in-law

Grandson Granddaughter Father Mother Brother Sister Uncle Aunt

Nephew Niece Other relative Nonrelative Boarder Domestic helper

Age as of last birthday For purposes of the census, age as of last birthday refers to the interval of time between the person’s date of birth and August 1, 2007 (the census reference date), expressed in completed years. Data on age is essential for purposes of analyzing population changes and preparing population estimates and forecasts. Marital status

Marital status refers to the personal status of each individual with reference to the marriage laws or customs of the country. It is the same as “civil status”, the term usually used in official and private records, documents, transactions, and others, in the country. For purposes of the census, a person’s marital status shall be as of the date of visit.

Explanatory Text

National Statistics Office, POPCEN 2007 xviii

The following are the categories for marital status: 1. Single – a person who has never been married; 2. Married – a person married in a religious or civil ceremony, either living

together with a spouse at the time of visit, or temporarily living apart because his/her spouse is employed elsewhere or is in the Armed Forces, and others;

3. Widowed – a married person whose spouse died and who has not remarried up to the time of visit;

4. Divorced/Separated – a person who is permanently separated from his/her spouse, legally, or through mutual consent. Also for a person whose marriage with another has been annulled or dissolved and can, therefore, remarry;

5. Common-law/Live-in – a person cohabiting or living consensually with another person as husband and wife without the benefit of a legal marriage; and

6. Unknown – a person whose marital status is unknown to the respondent, or whose marital status is being concealed by the respondent.

School attendance Current school attendance means attendance at present in any educational institution, public or private, for formal academic education at the elementary, high school, college or university level. Data on school attendance provide a description of the school-age population actually in school. The proportion of the school-age population, which is able to take advantage of the education system, is necessary in the assessment of the adequacy of the educational system of the country. Grade/Year in school Grade/year in school may be any one of the specific grades/years in elementary, high school, postsecondary, college, and postbaccalaureate levels of schooling during the School Year 2007 to 2008. Place of school This pertains to the place where a person was studying during the reference period. The purpose of this is to determine the number of students who were studying in places outside the city/municipality where they resided. Data on these are vital for transport planning purposes and in determining the daytime population. Highest grade/year completed Highest grade/year completed refers to the highest grade or year completed in school, college, or university as of August 1, 2007. This may be any one of the specific grades or years in elementary, high school, postsecondary, college, and postbaccalaureate levels of schooling. It also includes preschool education.

Explanatory Text

National Statistics Office, POPCEN 2007 xix

A person’s highest grade completed is categorized as follows: No grade completed – did not undergo formal schooling Preschool Elementary – grade 1 to grade 7 Elementary graduate High school – 1st year to 4th year High school graduate Postsecondary (1 to 3 years) Postsecondary– refers to the stage of formal education following the secondary

education level covering nondegree programs that have varying duration lasting up to three years. This is concerned primarily with developing strong and appropriately trained middle level manpower.

College undergraduate College graduate Postbaccalaureate – refers to any course for which an undergraduate degree is

required. Masters and doctoral degree students and graduates both fall under this category.

Overseas workers An overseas worker is a household member who is currently out of the country due to an overseas employment. He/she may or may not have a specific work contract or may be presently at home on vacation but has an existing overseas employment to return to. Undocumented overseas workers are included if the household still considers them as members and if they have been away for less than five years. However, immigrants are excluded. The increasing volume of overseas workers provides additional strength to the stability of the economy through their remittances, which are invested in industries like transportation, housing, construction, education, manufacturing, and others. Data on overseas worker help government planners and program managers in formulating policies, plans, and programs for the protection of overseas workers and the promotion of their welfare. Usual occupation This refers to the kind of job or business, which a person was engaged in most of the time during the last 12 months. In other words, usual activity/occupation is the person’s principal means of earning a living like real estate salesman, medical doctor, building architect, rice farmer, elementary school teacher, police inspector, and lawyer during the past 12 months.

A person is considered as a gainful worker or usually working most of the time during the past 12 months if he/she works for at least 10 hours a week for six months (26 weeks) or longer, including vacation or sick leave. He/she may be working for pay

Explanatory Text

National Statistics Office, POPCEN 2007 xx

(wage, salary, commission, tips, and others); for profit in own farm, business, private practice of a profession or trade; or without pay on own family farm or business.

The usual activity/occupation relates to the nongainful activities that a person

usually do most of the year if he/she did not work during the past 12 months. Among these activities are: housekeeper in own home, student, pensioner, retired, disabled, or dependent.

Data on occupation are essential in analyzing the growth, composition, and distribution of the work force. Place of work The question on place of work determines the number of workers who commute to places outside of the city/municipality where they are usually residing for the purpose of working. Data derived from this question is used as input in determining the daytime population. HOUSING CHARACTERISTICS Building A building is any structure built, designed or intended for the enclosure, shelter or protection of any person, animal or property. It consists of one or more rooms and/or other spaces covered by a roof and usually enclosed within external walls or with common dividing walls with adjacent buildings, which usually extend from the foundation to the roof. For purposes of this census, only buildings which contain living quarters, whether occupied or vacant, were listed. Living quarters counted are structurally separate and independent places of abode. They may:

1. have been constructed, built, converted, or arranged for human habitation, provided that at the time of the census, they are not used wholly for other purposes; or

2. have actually been used as living quarters at the time of the census although not intended for habitation.

Housing unit A housing unit is a structurally separate and independent place of abode which, by the way it has been constructed, converted, or arranged is intended for habitation by one or more households. Structures or parts of structures not intended for habitation

Explanatory Text

National Statistics Office, POPCEN 2007 xxi

such as commercial, industrial, and agricultural buildings, or natural and man-made shelters such as caves, boats, abandoned trucks, culverts, and others, but used as living quarters by households are also considered as housing units. Identifying housing units in a building A housing unit is normally intended for habitation by one household. However, in some cases, two or more households share the same building or the same housing unit as their place of habitation. The building may have more than one housing unit but from its physical layout, the different housing units may not be discernible. A portion of a building (a room or a group of rooms) qualifies as a separate housing unit if it meets both the following requirements:

1. Separateness – the portion of a building must have facilities for sleeping, preparing and taking meals, and its occupants must be isolated from other households in the building by means of walls or permanent partitions; and

2. Direct access – the portion of the building can be accessed directly from the outside of the building. That is, the occupants can come in to the portion of the building without passing through anybody else’s premises from the street, pathway, alley, callejon, road, yard, catwalk, public or communal staircase, passage, gallery, grounds, or through a common hall.

Housing units to be listed Only the following housing units were assigned individual housing unit serial numbers and listed:

1. Occupied or vacant housing units (VHUs) in single residential houses; 2. Occupied or VHUs in multi-unit residential buildings such as duplex,

accessoria or row houses, condominiums, tenement houses, townhouses, and others;

3. Occupied barong-barong or shanties; 4. VHUs in residential buildings used for purposes other than residential; 5. Housing units which are still under construction, but the roof and walls are

already in place; 6. Occupied housing units in ILQs such as hotels, motels, dormitories, lodging

houses, seminaries, mental hospitals, and others; 7. Occupied housing units in nonresidential buildings such as offices, rice mills,

barns, churches, and others; 8. VHUs with complete facilities for cooking, dining, and sleeping in ILQs and

nonresidential buildings; 9. Occupied mobile housing units such as boats, trailers, and others; or 10. Occupied improvised housing units in structures such as culverts, abandoned

trucks, caves, container vans, tents, and railroads cars.

programme implementation, and estimating investments, past and future, in housing construction. They are also used in determining how many of the households are housed in structurally acceptable housing units. Tenure status of the lot Tenure status of the lot is important for housing policies, in the promotion of lot ownership, and identification and prioritization of groups in need of housing assistance. The categories for tenure status of the lot are as follows:

1. Owned/being amortized/owner-like possession – this includes house owners paying the land on installment basis or holders of certificate of land title under the Land Reform Program, or holders of Ancestral Domain Title, and house/lot awardees of housing loan from Pag-ibig, Social Security System (SSS), Government Service Insurance System (GSIS), or commercial banks.

Population increased at the rate of 3.53 percent annually

General Santos City, a highly urbanized city in the province of South Cotabato, posted a total population of 529,542 persons as of August 1, 2007, an increase of 117,720 persons over its total population of 411,822 persons in 2000. The increase in the population count from 2000 to 2007 translated to an average annual population growth rate (PGR) of 3.53 percent, lower than the 5.05 percent annual PGR of the city for the period 1995 to 2000.

If the average annual PGR recorded at 3.53 percent during the period 2000 to 2007 continues, the population of General Santos City will double in 20 years.

The total population of General Santos City in 2007 was approximately six times its population size of 85,861 persons in the 1970 census. Calumpang was the most populous barangay Among the 26 barangays comprising General Santos City, Calumpang was the most populous with a population size making up 12.8 percent of the total population of the city. It was followed by Fatima (12.7 percent) and Labangal (10.9 percent). The rest of the barangays contributed less than 10.0 percent each. The least populated barangay was Olympog with 0.5 percent share to the total population of the city. It was also the least populated barangay in 2000. Sex ratio remained at 102 males per 100 females

Of the 529,542 total population in 2007, males accounted for 50.5 percent while females comprised 49.5 percent. These figures resulted in a sex ratio of 102 males for every 100 females, the same sex ratio recorded in 2000.

Median age increased to 21 years

In 2007, the median age of the population of the city was 21 years, which means that half of the total population was younger than 21 years. This is higher than the median age of 20 years that was recorded in 2000.

Moreover, 34.8 percent of the total population were under 15 years old. Children aged 0 to 4

years comprised the largest age group (12.4 percent), followed by those in the age groups 15 to 19 years (11.8 percent), 5 to 9 years (11.5 percent), and 10 to 14 years (10.9 percent).
