Flood Risk
High Flood Risk
Buyers in San Diego should treat flood risk as a primary — not secondary — due diligence item. Alangalang carries a high flood-risk rating, and this barangay shares that profile. Request DRRMO flood history records, inspect drainage proximity, verify the property's floor level above the nearest waterway, and consider whether flood insurance is available.

Commute time to Alangalang's commercial center ranges from 10–40 minutes depending on the barangay's distance from the main arterial road.
Amenities
