High Flood Risk

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
Salangan relies on San Miguel's local transport system. Tricycles serve the barangay-level routes; jeepneys and multicabs link residents to San Miguel's commercial district, public schools, and government offices.
