About Quezon
Quezon is a constituent barangay of Gitagum in Misamis Oriental. Flood risk in this part of Gitagum is moderate — buyers should verify the specific lot's drainage conditions. Property transactions here are primarily end-user driven: families buying a permanent home and workers seeking affordable accommodation near employment centers. Local families and employed workers looking for permanent, practical homes make up the dominant buyer segment in Quezon. Available properties — house-and-lot and townhouse developments serving end-user demand — are priced to reflect Gitagum's broader market positioning within Misamis Oriental. Title verification at the local Registry of Deeds is an essential pre-purchase step.

Flood Risk
Moderate Flood Risk
Quezon carries a moderate flood-risk rating that buyers should take seriously without over-weighting. Seasonal flooding affects some parts of the barangay; other parts are comparatively dry. A flood-history check at the barangay DRRMO office, combined with a physical inspection of the specific lot, is the recommended approach.
Transport
Quezon connects to Gitagum's road network via barangay roads. Local transport — tricycles for last-mile access, jeepneys and UV Express vans for onward connections — serves the community. Commute time to Gitagum's commercial center ranges from 10–40 minutes depending on the barangay's distance from the main arterial road.

Barangay Quezon provides its residents with a health center, covered court, and elementary school. For hospital-level medical care, buyers should identify the nearest district or provincial hospital in or near Gitagum. Commercial groceries and malls, if any, are located in Gitagum proper.
