Flood Risk
High Flood Risk
The high flood-risk rating for Cayabon reflects Milagros's broader situation. Properties near drainage canals, esteros, or low-lying terrain are most exposed. Buyers of upper-floor condominiums or elevated house-and-lot have significantly lower flood exposure — but should still verify that the building itself has not experienced foundation-level flooding.
Transport
Transport from Cayabon to key destinations in Milagros relies on the jeepney and tricycle network. The barangay road connects to Milagros's arterial road, from which jeepney and UV Express services provide access to the city center, hospitals, schools, and public markets.
