High Flood Risk
Rosario's high flood-risk rating applies to Ligaya. 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.
