Buyers comparing Macabasa against other Alamada barangays will find a similar offering of house-and-lot and townhouse developments serving end-user demand.

Flood Risk

The immediate amenity base in Macabasa includes a barangay health center and public elementary school. For groceries, the wet market in Alamada proper is the primary shopping destination.
