Location Details
Flood Risk
Moderate Flood Risk
San Francisco's moderate flood-risk rating means Union warrants targeted buyer investigation: Does the specific street flood? How deep? How quickly does water recede? Answers vary significantly lot by lot. Properties on higher ground or near functioning drainage infrastructure are the safer choices.
Transport
Union connects to San Francisco's road network via barangay roads. Local transport — tricycles for last-mile access, jeepneys and UV Express vans for onward connections — serves the community. Commute time to San Francisco's commercial center ranges from 10–40 minutes depending on the barangay's distance from the main arterial road.
Amenities
Union has access to a local elementary school, barangay health center, and covered multi-purpose hall within the community. Larger amenities — wet market, high schools, hospitals, malls, and government offices — are concentrated in San Francisco proper.
Growth Potential
Buyers in Union are entering a mature, stable market. San Francisco's economic base sustains consistent residential demand. Capital appreciation is moderate but dependable over a 10-year horizon — more predictable than emerging markets, though without the same upside potential.
