Flood Risk

Tambongon's high flood-risk designation means property-level due diligence is non-negotiable. Elevation within the barangay matters significantly — a lot that is even half a meter higher than its neighbor can be meaningfully safer. Buyers should inspect the finished floor level of target properties and any flood barriers installed by the barangay or developer.
