Flood Risk
High Flood Risk
Calbayog's high flood-risk rating applies to Hibatang. 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.

For commuters without private vehicles, proximity to the nearest jeepney stop is a critical property selection factor.
