100 Most Populous Barangays in the Philippines

Ranked by 2024 POPCEN population.

The Philippines has over 42,000 barangays — the smallest unit of local government. A handful of them, concentrated in Metro Manila and major regional cities, have populations larger than entire municipalities in other parts of the country. The largest barangay on this list, Barangay Commonwealth in Quezon City, had a 2024 POPCEN population of 215,035 — which is bigger than most fourth-class municipalities in the Philippines.

The top 100 barangays are dominated by the cities of Metro Manila (Quezon City, Caloocan, Pasig, Taguig, Manila), major Luzon cities (Cebu City, Bacoor, Dasmariñas), and the commercial centres of Mindanao (Davao, Cagayan de Oro, Zamboanga). Rural barangays, no matter how large in land area, rarely reach the top of this list because population density drives the ranking.

For context, the 50th-ranked barangay on this list (“Barangay 649” in City of Manila) had a population of 69,769 as of the 2024 POPCEN. Any barangay with more residents than that ranks among the top 50 most populous in the entire country.
