Location Details
Flood Risk
Moderate Flood Risk
Sicsican's moderate flood-risk rating reflects Puerto Princesa'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
The barangay road network in Sicsican links to Puerto Princesa's primary roads via concrete or asphalted barangay paths. Tricycles dominate the last-mile connection; jeepneys handle longer routes to Puerto Princesa proper. Buyers evaluating this barangay should note the condition of the barangay road — unpaved roads can become impassable during heavy rain.
Amenities
Sicsican has access to a local elementary school, barangay health center, and covered multi-purpose hall within the community. Larger amenities — wet market, high schools, hospitals, malls, and government offices — are concentrated in Puerto Princesa proper.
Growth Potential
The established growth rating for Sicsican 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.
