Flood Risk
Moderate Flood Risk
San Agustin 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.

Larger institutional amenities — secondary schools, government hospitals, and commercial centers — are available in San Jose proper or the nearest urban center in Antique.
Growth Potential
The established growth rating for San Agustin 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.
