But buyers cannot assume safety based on the barangay name alone. Verify at the property level using PAGASA flood maps and DRRMO records.

Tricycles serve internal barangay routes; jeepney and multicab lines link the barangay to Sulat proper and regional transport hubs. Private vehicle ownership significantly reduces commute time for barangays further from the main road.
