A Building Only in Barangay San Pablo

San Pablo is one of the small barangays (village) of Calabanga town; one of the few that comprises its poblacion or urban center. To be precise, it is just a one-street affair with both sides cramped with residential structures of varying designs defined by the financial well-being of the residents. It very much represents the microcosm of the people’s way of life, which, is also generally obtainable and representative of the region’s well being, if not of the country.

One striking structure is an elevated barangay (village) hall constructed right in the middle of the road. It is here that village officials conduct their regular sessions and hold office. For lack of available land site (sic), they opted to construct the structure where it is now.

It is interesting to note that the municipal hall and much of the government administrative buildings are located within the barangay, a short walking distance from the structure.

The village has a population of 725 according to the official 2007 census.

  1. How unusual! It surprises me to read that land was in short supply. I suppose this is because the surrounding land is needed for crops?
