FOREWORD

The 2010 Census of Population and Housing (2010 CPH) Report No. 1 is one of several publications designed to disseminate the results of the 2010 CPH. This report presents the population by province, city or municipality and barangay based on the 2010 CPH. This information will be useful for the formulation of the social and economic development policies, plans and programs of the Government. These are also important for purposes of the calculation of Internal Revenue Allocation, determination of number of congressional districts, and creation or conversion of various administrative geographic units.

The 2010 CPH is the 13th census of population and the 6th census of housing that was conducted in the country since the first census undertaken in 1903. It was designed to take an inventory of the total population and housing units in the country and collect information about their characteristics as of the reference period May 1, 2010.

The 2010 CPH data were gathered through house-to-house visit and interview of

a responsible member of every household visited. The data processing of the results of the 2010 CPH utilized a combination of Optical Mark Reader (OMR) technology and data encoding. The 2010 CPH results on population counts underwent careful evaluation for reasonableness and consistency with expected demographic patterns and trends in accordance with evaluation procedures of international standards. Unusual changes and deviations of 2010 CPH population counts and related indicators from expected patterns and trends were field-verified.

The successful completion of the 2010 CPH would not have been possible

without the unwavering support and services rendered by the local and national officials, government and private agencies, media, and non-government organizations. We acknowledge with gratitude the census coordinating boards at the national, regional, provincial, city, and municipal levels in ensuring agency logistic support and assistance, the dedication of teachers from the Department of Education, the hired census personnel, and our very own NSO personnel who acted as census enumerators and supervisors, and the cooperation of the general populace. The NSO extends its deep appreciation of their support to this important undertaking.

EXPLANATORY NOTE Introduction The National Statistics Office conducted the 2010 Census of Population and Housing or 2010 CPH in May 2010. This is the 13th census of population and the 6th census of housing undertaken in the country. Like the previous censuses conducted by the office, the 2010 CPH is designed to take an inventory of the total population and housing units in the Philippines and to collect information about their characteristics. Content and Coverage of this Report

In this report, the population counts by province, city/municipality and barangay

are presented. These population counts were declared official for all purposes by His Excellency President Benigno S. Aquino III under Proclamation No. 362 dated March 30, 2012.

Authority to Conduct the 2010 CPH Commonwealth Act (CA) No. 591, approved on August 19, 1940, authorized the

then Bureau of the Census and Statistics (now the National Statistics Office or NSO) to collect by enumeration, sampling or other methods, statistics and other information concerning the population and to conduct, for statistical purposes, investigations and studies of social and economic conditions in the country, among others (Section 2 of CA No. 591).

Batas Pambansa Blg. 72, approved on June 11, 1980, further accorded the NSO

the authority to conduct population censuses every ten years beginning in 1980, without prejudice to the undertaking of special censuses on agriculture, industry, commerce, housing, and other sectors as may be approved by the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA).

Executive Order (EO) No. 121, otherwise known as the Reorganization Act of the

Philippine Statistical System, which was issued on January 30, 1987, declared that the NSO shall be the major statistical agency responsible for generating general purpose statistics and for undertaking such censuses and surveys as may be designated by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) (Section 9 of EO No. 121).

Presidential Proclamation No. 2028 “Declaring May 2010 as National Census

Month” enjoined all departments and other government agencies, including government-owned and controlled corporations, as well as LGUs, to implement and

xii National Statistics Office

execute the operational plans, directives, and orders of the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB), through the NSO, relative to this Proclamation. Coordination for the 2010 CPH

Batas Pambansa Blg. 72 provides that the National Census Coordinating Board

(NCCB) at the national level, and local boards at the regional, provincial, city, and municipal levels shall be created to ensure the successful conduct of the census. For the 2010 CPH, the NSCB was designated as the NCCB pursuant to NSCB’s mandated function specified in Executive Order No. 121 to establish appropriate mechanisms for statistical coordination at the different geographic levels.

The Director General of NEDA was the Chairperson of the NCCB, and the

Secretaries from other Departments were the Members. The NSO Administrator, who served as the Executive Officer of the NCCB, was mandated to formulate and execute plans for the 2010 CPH.

In the field, the NSO Regional Director (RD) was the Executive Officer of the

Regional Census Coordinating Board (RCCB). He/she was responsible for the coordination, monitoring, and supervision of the census operations in all provinces within the region. The RCCB was chaired by the Regional Director of the NEDA. The Regional Director of the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) served as the Vice Chairperson. The members were the heads of the following: Regional Development Council, National Statistics Coordination Board, Department of Agrarian Reform, Department of Agriculture, Department of Education (DepEd), Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Department of Finance, Department of Foreign Affairs, Department of Justice, Department of Labor and Employment, Department of National Defense, Department of Public Works and Highways, Department of Social Welfare and Development, Department of Trade and Industry, Department of Transportation and Communications, Department of Tourism, Department of Science and Technology, Department of Health, Commission on Population, National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP), and Office of Muslim Affairs. Completing the membership of the RCCB was a representative from the private sector.

At the local government level, Provincial Census Coordinating Boards (PCCB)

and City/Municipality Census Coordinating Boards (C/MCCB) were created. The Provincial Governor was the Chairperson of the PCCB and the Division Superintendent of Schools, the Vice Chairperson. The District Highway Engineer, Provincial Commander (PNP), Provincial Planning and Development Officer, Provincial Assessor, Provincial Agriculturist, Provincial Population Officer, Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Officer, Provincial Social Welfare and Development Officer, Provincial Information Officer, NCIP Development Management Officer V, and three representatives from the private sector served as members.

The members were composed of the following: The Station Commanders, City/Municipal Planning and Development Officer, City/Municipal Population Officer, City/Municipal Civil Registrar, City Assessor (for CCCB), Municipal Agriculture Officer (for MCCB), and a representative from the private sector. The District Statistics Officer served as Executive Officer.

Definition of Terms and Concepts The operational definitions and concepts adopted in the 2010 CPH have also been used in past censuses of population and housing. The use of the same operational definitions of terms and concepts in our population and housing censuses ensures comparability of census results. The 2010 CPH enumerators were instructed to adhere strictly to these operational definitions. Barangay A barangay is the smallest political unit in the country. Generally, one enumerator is assigned to enumerate one barangay. For enumeration purposes, a large barangay is usually divided into parts, and each part is called an enumeration area (EA). The official list of barangays of the DILG in the Philippine Standard Geographic Code as of March 2010 was used for the 2010 CPH. Enumeration Area

An enumeration area (EA) is a delineated geographic area usually consisting of about 350 to 500 households. It could be an entire barangay or part of a barangay. It is assigned to one enumerator.

Usual Place of Residence All persons were enumerated in their usual place of residence which refers to the geographic place (street, barangay, city/municipality or province) where the person usually resides. As a rule, a person’s usual place of residence is the place where that person 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

person who sleep in the same housing unit and have a common arrangement in the preparation and consumption of food.


xiv National Statistics Office

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 members of the household. 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 person who shares a housing unit with a household but separately cooks his/her meals or consumes his/her food elsewhere is not considered a member of the household he/she shares the housing unit with. This person is listed as a separate household. Household Membership

In determining household membership, the basic criterion is the usual place of residence or the place where the person usually resides. This may be the same or different from the place where he/she is found at the time of the census. As a rule, it is the place where he/she usually sleeps. Household Population Household population refers to all persons who are members of the household. Institutional Living Quarter An institutional living quarter (ILQ) is a structurally separate and independent place of abode intended for habitation by large groups of individuals (10 or more). Such quarter usually has certain common facilities such as kitchen and dining rooms, toilet and bath, and lounging areas, which are shared by the occupants. Institutional Population An institutional population comprises of persons who are found living in ILQs. They may have their own families or households elsewhere but at the time of 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. Whom to Enumerate As in past population and housing censuses, enumerators of 2010 CPH were provided with guidelines on whom to list as members of a household and institutional population. This will ensure uniformity in determining household membership,


National Statistics Office xv

institutional population, and in identifying persons to be included in the enumeration or excluded from it. Furthermore, this will ensure that there is no omission or duplication in the enumeration of persons and households during census-taking. The following are the guidelines in determining household membership and institutional population:

Persons enumerated as members of the household 1. Those who are present at the time of visit and whose usual place of residence

is the housing unit where the household lives.

2. Family members who are overseas workers and who have been away at the time of the census for not more than five years from the date of departure and are expected to be back within five years from the date of last departure.

An overseas worker is a household member who is currently out of the

country due to 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, or TNT for Tago Nang Tago, are considered as overseas workers for as long as they are still considered members of the household and had been away for less than five years. However, immigrants are excluded from the census.

3. Those 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. An example is a person on training with the Armed Forces of the Philippines for not more than six months;

e. detained in national/provincial/city/municipal jails or in military camps for a period of not more than six months as of May 1, 2010, except when their sentence or detention is expected to exceed six months;

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

g. on board in 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 who have resided or are expected to reside in the Philippines for at least a year from their arrival, except members of diplomatic missions and non-Filipino members of international organizations.

6. Filipino balikbayans with usual place of residence in a foreign country but

residence or who are not certain to be enumerated elsewhere. Persons enumerated as members of the institutional population 1. Permanent lodgers in boarding houses;

2. Dormitory residents who do not usually go home to their respective

households at least once a week; 3. Hotel residents who have stayed in the hotel for more than six months at the

time of the census; 4. Boarders in residential houses provided that their number is 10 or more.

Otherwise, they will be considered as members of regular households; 5. Patients in hospitals who are confined for more than six months; 6. Patients confined in mental hospitals, leprosaria or leper colonies, and drug

rehabilitation centers, regardless of the length of confinement; 7. Wards in orphanages; 8. Inmates of penal colonies or prison cells; 9. Seminarians, nuns in convents, and monks; and 10. Workers in mining and similar camps. The following persons are not considered as members of the institutional population and should be 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;

xviii National Statistics Office

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

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 expected to be away from the Philippines for more than one year from departure.

Method of Enumeration The gathering of population and housing data was performed by census enumerators through house-to-house visits and interview of a responsible member of each household. Self-Administered Questionnaires (SAQ) were provided to households living in special areas such as exclusive subdivisions/villages, condominiums, and others, and institutions where personal interview was not possible. A complete listing of buildings which contain living quarters, including vacant ones, as well as housing units and institutional living quarters was also done. A combination of complete enumeration and sampling of households was done to obtain population count and data on basic characteristics of the household population and housing units. For institutional population, a complete enumeration was done. The non-sample households were interviewed using the Common Household Questionnaire (CPH Form 2) while the sample households were interviewed using the Sample Household Questionnaire (CPH Form 3). Institutional population in institutional living quarters was enumerated using the Institutional Population Questionnaire (CPH Form 4). These questionnaires were used to gather information on the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the population, as well as the characteristics of households and housing units.

xx National Statistics Office

Information about households of Filipinos working in Philippine embassies in foreign countries, as well as those of homeless population were also gathered and included in the total population of the country. Sampling Scheme

As mentioned earlier, the 2010 CPH was carried out by using a combination of complete enumeration and sampling. The sampling rate or the proportion of households selected as sample households was either 100 percent or 20 percent, depending on the size of the city/municipality, as follows:

The sampling rate for the city/municipality is applied to all EAs in the

city/municipality. Each city/municipality was treated as a domain to obtain efficient and accurate estimates of population and housing at the city/municipality level.

For a city/municipality with 100 percent sampling rate, all households in all the EAs within this city/municipality were selected as sample households. For municipalities with a 20 percent sampling rate, systematic cluster sampling was adopted to minimize the enumerator’s selection bias. In this sampling scheme, an EA was divided into clusters composed of five households each. Clusters were formed by grouping five households that had been assigned consecutive numbers as they were listed in CPH Form 1. A sample selection of one in every five clusters of households was carried out with the first cluster selected at random. Random start was pre-determined for each EA. The following municipalities in some provinces of CAR, Region I, Region II, and Region IV-B had been identified as having a population size of 500 persons or less, hence assigned a 100 percent sampling rate:

CAR Abra Bucloc Daguioman

Appendix D 2010 Census of Population and Housing


TRAININGS AND FIELDWORK FOR THE CONDUCT OF 2010 CPH

The 2010 Census of Population and Housing (2010 CPH) is designed to take an inventory of the population and housing units in the Philippines and collect information about their characteristics. All information about the population and living quarters were collected as of 12:01 AM of May 1, 2010, the census reference date and time.

The National Statistics Office (NSO) is the agency mandated by law to conduct the 2010

CPH. Section 2 of Commonwealth Act No. 591 (CA 591), Section 9 of Executive Order No. 121 and Batas Pambansa Blg. 72 (BP 72) are the legal bases for the conduct of census. CA 591 and BP 72 explicitly provide the basis for the confidentiality of data collected during the census.

The census-taking was from May 17, 2010 to June 14, 2010, except in highly urbanized

cities such as the cities in the NCR, and large provinces in CALABARZON and Central Luzon where the enumeration period extended beyond 23 days. About 68,146 public school teachers were employed for the census as enumerators, team supervisors, and census area supervisors. Their number was augmented by 19,579 hired personnel who were assigned to enumerate in large and congested areas where enumeration was expected to go beyond 23 days and thus cannot be handled by teachers who were expected to report for the school opening on June 14. An enumerator was assigned to enumerate one enumeration area (EA), which has about 350 households. A ratio of one team supervisor to five enumerators was used during the census operations.

In order to prepare the 84,000 census personnel for enumeration work, four levels of

training were conducted. The first level training for enumeration was participated in by personnel of NSO central office and officials of NSO regional and selected provincial offices, who, in turn acted as trainers in succeeding levels. The second level training was for NSO provincial and regional office officials and staff who served as trainers for the third and fourth level training. The third level training was participated in by public school teachers who were assigned as census area supervisors. The enumerators and team supervisors were trained during the fourth level training. A standard training program covering the concepts, definitions, procedures, as well as duties and responsibilities of enumerators and supervisors was used.

Census-taking involved going around the whole enumeration area to do the required

census procedures, as follows. 1. Courtesy Call. As a matter of protocol, the census personnel made a courtesy call to

the barangay chairperson. The enumerator informed the official that the census would be undertaken in his/her barangay and the enumerators would go around the entire area to ask questions from the residents.

2. Mapping and Canvassing. The enumerator went around the entire EA to familiarize himself with the place and checked the barangay or EA boundaries and landmarks, and reflected these on the barangay/EA map.

3. Listing using CPH Form 1 or the Listing Booklet. The enumerator listed buildings

with living quarters, housing units, households and number of household members, and institutional living quarters, and number of persons staying in institutions. Structures which are occupied or used as living quarters by households, even though

2010 Census of Population and Housing Appendix D


these are not intended for human habitation were also listed. During the listing, the names of the household heads and their addresses, and the names and addresses of institutions were recorded.

4. Interview and Recording of Answers. For every household or institution listed, the

enumerator administered a questionnaire, that is, CPH Form 2 or Form 3 for a household and CPH Form 4 for an institution. The barangay chairperson or any official was also interviewed by the enumerator or his team supervisor using CPH Form 5 or Barangay Questionnaire.

5. Plotting. The enumerator plotted the building with its assigned serial number on the

EA map. Standard cartographic symbols were used in plotting the buildings of the households and institutions.

6. Posting of sticker. The enumerator posted a sticker on the door, gate or any

conspicuous part of the housing unit or institutional living quarter, to indicate that the household or institution has been listed and/or interviewed.

In addition to the count of the household population and institutional population,

information about selected demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the population were collected using different census questionnaires. These questionnaires were reviewed for completeness and consistency of entries at various phases of the census operations. During data collection, the census supervisors scrutinized questionnaires for completeness and consistency of entries.

Progress monitoring reports were utilized to track the progress of census and field

operations and to evaluate the completeness of census coverage in each EA while enumeration was still ongoing. The provincial, regional and central offices of NSO monitored the progress through the Progress Monitoring System (PMS). The PMS generated reports on number of households, institutions and persons enumerated based on the information sent by area supervisors through SMS (short messaging system or text messaging).

Review of accomplished questionnaires for completeness and consistency of entries

was also carried out at the census headquarters where the census teams met weekly and at the provincial offices during manual processing. Machine processing, which includes scanning and interpretation, key-from-image data entry, completeness and consistency checking, and consolidation of data, were done at the various census processing centers (CPC) in the country. Data files were transmitted from the CPCs to the Central Office for the generation of census counts. Population counts by province, city, municipality and barangay as determined from the processed census questionnaires are official for all purposes as proclaimed by the President of the Philippines.

The 2010 CPH adopted innovations to make the census operations efficient. 1. GPS technology for mapping. For this census round, the use of GPS (Global

Positioning System) was used for mapping selected barangays in five regions of Caraga, Bicol region, Cordillera, Ilocos region except Pangasinan, and in Eastern Visayas. This activity provided the enumerators with more accurate maps with exact boundary information. The use of the GPS technology will be continued by NSO as part of the rolling program for mapping activities.

Appendix D 2010 Census of Population and Housing


2. SMS technology for Progress Monitoring. The NSO made use of the SMS technology in monitoring the progress of enumeration nationwide. Started in the 2007 census, the enhanced version of the Progress Monitoring System or PMS was adopted for the current census round. The Philippines is the first country in the Asia and Pacific to have adopted the SMS technology for progress monitoring.

3. OMR technology for data processing. The use of Optical Mark Reader (OMR)

technology in the Philippine census started in the 2000 CPH. The Philippines is among the countries to have successfully used this technology. The use of OMR shortened the data entry phase as only those items with write-in entries were encoded. Data encoding using the key-from-image was done instead of keying from the questionnaires.

4. Satellite images for validating census coverage. The Central Office downloaded

satellite images and identified structures (buildings) in specific cities and municipalities. Counts of households were estimated based on identified structures. These estimates were used to validate the completeness of census coverage in these areas.

The NSO implemented strategies to enumerate areas which were hard to reach, remote,

upland, with Indigenous Peoples (IP) communities, under military control or with peace and order problem, Chinese communities or exclusive villages with low response rate because of security or other reasons, and areas with boundary disputes. These strategies included the recruitment of enumerators who are from the area; assignment of IP teachers in IP areas; seeking the assistance of IP guides; coordination with the AFP and PNP for transport and escorts; coordination with local officials; and coordination with homeowners associations in exclusive villages, high-rise condominiums and Filipino-Chinese communities.

EVALUATION OF POPULATION COUNTS FROM THE 2010 CPH

Progress monitoring reports were utilized to track the progress of census field operations and to evaluate the completeness of census coverage in each enumeration area while the enumeration was still ongoing. The provincial, regional, and central offices of NSO monitored the progress through the Progress Monitoring System (PMS). It used as inputs the Enumerator’s Accomplishment/PM Reports (CPH Form 10). The evaluation continued after the enumeration period using counts from processed questionnaires from the twelve Census Processing Centers 2010 (CPC 2010) across the country.

Evaluation of Counts at the NSO Field Offices The Regional Office (RO) was responsible for the evaluation of the 2010 CPH counts for

the region while the Provincial Office (PO) was responsible for the province. The computerized reporting through the PMS facilitated the evaluation at the PO and the RO. The PMS generated various reports which include the Enumeration Area (EA) Progress Enumeration Report (PMS Report 3). This report shows the counts of population of males and females and number of households by EA and the status of enumeration in each EA or barangay based on the information from CPH Form 10. Another PMS report generated at the PO is the Barangay Coverage Report (PMS Report 4). This report was used to evaluate the acceptability of the reported counts for the following indicators, computed up to the barangay level:

a. Household and population counts b. Demographic indicators

Annual population growth rate Percent change in the number of households Average household size

c. Difference between 2010 and 2007 institutional population d. Number and percent of EAs completed

The field offices investigated areas with demographically implausible growth rates and

questionable values in any of the cited indicators. Evaluation at the Central Office

Parallel monitoring and evaluation were done at the Central Office particularly at the

Household Statistics Department (HSD). The information used for the evaluation by HSD were: a. 2010 CPH counts up to the barangay level generated through PMS; b. 2010 CPH counts up to the barangay level from the Enumeration Area Reference

File (EARF) filled up with population counts by the Provincial Offices after matching and completeness checking of census questionnaires during the manual processing;

c. 2010 CPH counts up to the barangay level generated by CPCs; d. average annual population growth rates for the provinces and cities/municipalities for

the periods 1990-1995, 1995-2000, 2000-2007, 1990-2000, 1995-2007, 2000-2010

Appendix E 2010 Census of Population and Housing


and for all geographic levels, that is, including barangay level, for the period 2007-2010;

e. sex ratio for the provinces and cities/municipalities for the year 2007, and for all geographic levels for the year 2010;

f. average household size for all geographic levels for the years 2000, 2007, and 2010; g. percent change of population between census years 2000 and 2007, 2000 and 2010,

and 2007 and 2010 for all geographic levels; and h. difference in the total population, household population, and number of households

between census years 2000 and 2007, 2000 and 2010, and 2007 and 2010 for all geographic levels.

Below are other sources of information used as inputs for the extrapolation of population for 2010. Results of extrapolation were compared with the population counts from 2010 CPH, using the balancing equation assumption:

a. vital registration data on annual births and deaths and estimates of levels of registration based on 2000 CPH and POPCEN 2007, for the provinces and cities/municipalities;

b. number of housing units based on satellite images, for selected provinces and cities/municipalities; and

c. administrative records on membership of households in the community water or electric cooperatives, for selected provinces and cities/municipalities.

Acceptable or demographically plausible values for the abovementioned indicators, as

well as the expected direction of their changes over time are specified in the Field Operations Manual of 2010 CPH (pages 133-134). The demographic indicators for each geographic area were evaluated using the procedures also contained in the Field Operations Manual. Explanations were sought if a particular indicator fell outside the acceptable range of values, or if the observed change in the indicator deviates from the expected demographic trend. The RO submitted to the CO the explanations of the POs in his/her region for areas with census results that were considered questionable by the CO based on its independent evaluation.

A more thorough procedure of evaluation was employed for barangays suspected of

having census under-coverage or over-coverage. Careful scrutiny of questionnaires for these barangays was carried out following the procedures discussed in pages 135-136 of the Field Operations Manual. In extreme cases wherein the result of the scrutiny of questionnaires confirmed that under-enumeration or padding or fabrication of population was committed, field verification became necessary. Teams composed of Statisticians from the CO, the PSOs and Statisticians of concerned provinces conducted field verification in areas suspected of having been under-enumerated or over-enumerated.
