Location Details
Flood Risk
High Flood Risk
Bobon's high flood-risk rating applies to Arellano. This does not mean every property floods equally — some streets and elevated lots within the barangay may have a strong safety record. But buyers cannot assume safety based on the barangay name alone. Verify at the property level using PAGASA flood maps and DRRMO records.
Transport
Getting in and out of Arellano relies on Bobon's local transport network. Tricycles serve internal barangay routes; jeepney and multicab lines link the barangay to Bobon proper and regional transport hubs. Private vehicle ownership significantly reduces commute time for barangays further from the main road.
Amenities
Community amenities in Arellano cover the essentials: barangay health center, public elementary school, and covered court. Buyers with school-age children should verify the distance to the nearest public high school in Bobon, as secondary education typically requires a short commute.
Growth Potential
The established growth rating for Arellano indicates a market where demand comes from genuine end-users — local families, workers, and retirees — rather than investors chasing appreciation. This typically results in fair pricing and lower long-term vacancy risk for landlords.
