Location Details
Flood Risk
Moderate Flood Risk
Katipunan's moderate flood-risk rating reflects Clarin'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 Katipunan links to Clarin's primary roads via concrete or asphalted barangay paths. Tricycles dominate the last-mile connection; jeepneys handle longer routes to Clarin proper.
