Location Details
Flood Risk
High Flood Risk
Dappig'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.
Transport
The barangay road network in Dappig links to San Agustin's primary roads via concrete or asphalted barangay paths. Tricycles dominate the last-mile connection; jeepneys handle longer routes to San Agustin proper. Buyers evaluating this barangay should note the condition of the barangay road — unpaved roads can become impassable during heavy rain.
Amenities
