Location Details
Flood Risk
Moderate Flood Risk
Caboluan's moderate flood-risk rating reflects Santa Maria's terrain and drainage infrastructure. Not all parts of the barangay flood equally — buyers should review the NAMRIA flood hazard map for the specific property location and ask the barangay DRRMO office for local flood records.
Transport
Transport from Caboluan to key destinations in Santa Maria relies on the jeepney and tricycle network. The barangay road connects to Santa Maria's arterial road, from which jeepney and UV Express services provide access to the city center, hospitals, schools, and public markets.
Amenities
The immediate amenity base in Caboluan includes a barangay health center and public elementary school. For groceries, the wet market in Santa Maria proper is the primary shopping destination.

Buyer Questions
Frequently asked about Caboluan real estate
How does Caboluan compare to other barangays in Santa Maria?
Within Santa Maria, 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 Caboluan or in Santa Maria proper?
"Santa Maria proper" typically refers to the Poblacion or central barangays — denser, pricier, but closer to amenities and transport. Caboluan 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.
