About San Vicente
For buyers considering Daram, Samar, San Vicente offers a barangay with deep cultural ties to its patron saint. Flood risk is a key due diligence item in Daram — verify the property's specific flood history before committing. Named after a patron saint, this barangay has a heritage character rooted in the Catholic parish system that organized early Philippine settlements. The local chapel remains its most visible landmark. Property types in San Vicente reflect Daram's market: single-family homes, townhouses, and affordable condominiums. Buyers here are typically families, workers, and long-time residents seeking stable, accessible housing. Standard due diligence — title verification at the Registry of Deeds, barangay clearance, and a physical site visit — applies to all purchases in this barangay.
Location Details
Flood Risk
High Flood Risk
The high flood-risk rating for San Vicente reflects Daram's broader situation. Properties near drainage canals, esteros, or low-lying terrain are most exposed. Buyers of upper-floor condominiums or elevated house-and-lot have significantly lower flood exposure — but should still verify that the building itself has not experienced foundation-level flooding.
Transport
San Vicente residents use tricycles for intra-barangay movement and jeepney or UV Express vans to reach Daram's commercial and employment centers. Road access from the barangay to Daram's main arterial road is the key infrastructure factor for buyers evaluating daily commute viability.
Amenities
San Vicente maintains barangay-level services: health center, multi-purpose hall, and elementary school. The nearest public market, district hospital, high schools, and commercial centers are in Daram proper — the standard amenity pattern for barangays in this province.
Growth Potential
The established market of Daram means San Vicente offers predictable real estate dynamics: stable prices, consistent demand from local families and workers, and no dramatic peaks or troughs. A sound choice for first-time buyers and long-term owner-occupiers.

Buyer Questions
Frequently asked about San Vicente real estate
How does San Vicente compare to other barangays in Daram?
Within Daram, barangay-level differences are primarily driven by: (1) distance from the city center — closer barangays command higher prices and better transport access; (2) elevation and flood history — higher barangays are generally safer; (3) proximity to schools and markets — a practical factor for families. Compare specific properties rather than barangay names for the most accurate evaluation.
Is it better to buy in San Vicente or in Daram proper?
"Daram proper" typically refers to the Poblacion or central barangays — denser, pricier, but closer to amenities and transport. San Vicente may offer more space for the same budget, at the cost of a longer commute to commercial areas. The right choice depends on your lifestyle priorities: proximity vs. space and affordability.
