URBAN
A. In their entirety, all cities and municipalities having a population density of at least
1,000 persons per square kilometer.
B. Poblaciones or central districts of municipalities or cities which have a population
density of at least 500 persons per square kilometer.
C. Poblaciones or central districts (not included in A & B) regardless of their population
size if they have the following:
a) street pattern, i.e. network of streets in either parallel or right-angel orientation;
b) at least six establishments such as commercial, manufacturing, recreation and/
or personal services;
c) at least three of the following:
· town hall, church or chapel with religious services at least once a month;
· public plaza, park or cemetery;
· market place or building where trading activities are carried on at least once a
week;
· a public building like school, hospital, puericulture and health center or library.

URBAN
1. If a barangay has a population size of 5,000 or more, then a
barangay is considered urban, or
2. If a barangay has at least one establishment with a minimum
of 100 employees, a barangay is considered urban, or
3. If a barangay has 5 or more establishments with a minimum
of 10 employees, and 5 or more facilities within the two-
kilometer radius from the barangay hall, then a barangay is
considered urban
Further, all barangays in the National Capital Region are
automatically classified as urban and all highly urbanized cities
would be subjected to the urban-rural criteria in order to
determine its urban-rural classification. All other barangays are
therefore classified as rural.
