High flood risk in Dagami is a serious consideration for buyers in Maragongdong. During typhoon season, significant flooding can occur. Key questions to ask before buying: Which months does this street flood? What is the average water depth? Has interior flooding ever occurred? How long does water typically take to recede?
Transport
Public transport in Maragongdong consists of barangay tricycles and jeepney routes to Dagami proper. For provincial and inter-city travel, the nearest bus terminal or transport hub in Dagami's town center is the primary departure point.
