FOREWORD
The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) conducted the 2015 Census of

Population (POPCEN 2015) in August 2015 primarily to update the country’s
population and its demographic characteristics, such as the size, composition, and
geographic distribution.
Report No. 3 – Population, Land Area, and Population Density is among the
series of publications that present the results of the POPCEN 2015. This publication
provides information on the population size, land area, and population density by
region, province, highly urbanized city, and city/municipality based on the data from
population census conducted by the PSA in the years 2000, 2010, and 2015; and
data on land area by city/municipality as of December 2013 that was provided by
the Land Management Bureau (LMB) of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (DENR). Also presented in this report is the percent change in the
population density over the three census years.
The population density shows the relationship of the population to the size of
land where the population resides. In this report, it is expressed as the number of
persons residing in every square kilometer of land. Data on population density
provide planners and policy makers with bases for the efficient and appropriate
allocation of resources and revenues and formulation of programs relative to the
delivery of basic services to the public.
We would like to express our profound appreciation to the LMB-DENR for

providing the PSA with a copy of the 2013 Masterlist of Land Areas of Cities and
Municipalities.

EXPLANATORY TEXT
Introduction
The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) conducted the 2015 Census of

Population (POPCEN 2015) in August 2015. This is the 14th census of population
undertaken in the country.
Like the previous censuses conducted in the country, the POPCEN 2015 was
designed to take an inventory of the population of the Philippines and to collect
information about its characteristics.
Content and Coverage of this Publication
This publication, Report No. 3 – Population, Land Area, and Population Density,
contains tables on the population, land area, population density, and percent change
in population density for all regions, provinces, highly urbanized cities, and cities/
municipalities in the Philippines. The Land Management Bureau – Department of
Environment and Natural Resources (LMB-DENR) provided the data on land area by
city/municipality as of December 2013. The population counts, on the other hand,
were culled from the results of the 2000 and 2010 Census of Population and Housing
(2000 and 2010 CPH) and the POPCEN 2015 conducted by the PSA.
Authority to Conduct the POPCEN 2015
The authority and mandate of the PSA to conduct the POPCEN 2015
emanates from Republic Act (RA) No. 10625 and Executive Order (EO) No. 352.
RA No. 10625, also known as the Philippine Statistical Act of 2013, which was
approved on September 12, 2013, states that “the PSA shall be primarily
responsible for all national censuses and surveys, sectoral statistics, consolidation of
administrative recording system, and compilation of national accounts”.
Specifically, Section 6(b) of this Act mandates the PSA “to prepare and conduct
periodic censuses on population, housing, agriculture, fisheries, business, industry,
and other sectors of the economy.”
EO No. 352 – Designation of Statistical Activities That Will Generate Critical

Data for Decision-Making of the Government and the Private Sector, stipulates the
conduct of a mid-decade census primarily to update the population count in all
barangays nationwide.
Explanatory Text_
Moreover, Presidential Proclamation No. 1031, Declaring August 2015 as

National Census Month, enjoined all departments and other government agencies,
including government-owned and -controlled corporations, as well as local government
units (LGUs), to implement and execute the operational plans, directives, and orders of
the PSA Board through the PSA, relative to this Proclamation.
Definition of Terms and Concepts
Most of the operational definitions and concepts adopted in the POPCEN 2015
have also been used in the past censuses of population. The use of the same
operational definitions of terms and concepts in population censuses ensures
comparability of census results. The POPCEN 2015 enumerators were instructed to
adhere strictly to these operational definitions.
Barangay
A barangay is the smallest political unit in the country. Generally, one

enumerator is assigned in one barangay.
The list of barangays used in the POPCEN 2015 was based on the Philippine
Standard Geographic Code as of December 2015.
Usual place of residence
All persons were enumerated in their usual place of residence, which refers to
the geographic place (street, barangay, city/municipality or province) where the
person usually resides. As a rule, a person’s usual place of residence is the place
where he/she sleeps most of the time. Hence, it may be the same as or different
from the place where he/she was found at the time of the census.
Household
A household is a social unit consisting of a person living alone or a group of

persons who sleep in the same housing unit and have a common arrangement in
the preparation and consumption of food.
In most cases, a household consists of persons who are related by kinship

ties, such as parents and their children. In some instances, several generations of
familial ties are represented in one household while, still in others, even more
distant relatives are included as members of the household.
Some household members may have no relationship to the head of the

household, for example, household helpers, boarders, and nonrelatives. They are
considered as members of the household provided that they sleep in the same housing

unit and have a common arrangement for the preparation and consumption of food
with the household, and that they do not go home to their family at least once a week.
A person who shares a housing unit with a household but separately cooks
his/her meals or consumes his/her food elsewhere is not considered a member of
the household he/she shares the housing unit with. This person should be listed as a
separate (one member) household.
Household membership
In determining the household membership, the basic criterion is the usual

place of residence or the place where the person usually resides. This may be the
same or different from the place where he/she is found at the time of the census.
As a rule, it is the place where he/she usually sleeps.
Household population
Household population comprises of persons who belong to a household.
Institutional living quarter
Institutional living quarter (ILQ) is a structurally separate and independent

place of abode intended for habitation by large groups of individuals. Such a quarter
usually has certain common facilities such as kitchen and dining rooms, toilet and
bath, and lounging areas which are shared by the occupants.
Institutional population
Institutional population comprises of persons who are found living in ILQs.

They may have their own families or households elsewhere but at the time of the
census, they are committed or confined in institutions, or they live in ILQs and are
usually subject to a common authority or management, or are bound by either a
common public objective or a common personal interest.
Method of Enumeration
The gathering of population and housing data was performed by census

enumerators through house to house visits and interview of a responsible member of
each household. Self-Administered Questionnaires (SAQs) and/or Electronic
Questionnaires (E-Questionnaires) were provided to households living in special areas,
such as high-rise buildings/condominiums, exclusive subdivisions/villages, and
townhouses, and institutions where personal interview was not possible. A complete
listing of buildings which contain living quarters, including the vacant ones, as well
as housing units and ILQs was also done.
Philippine Statistics Authority ix

Explanatory Text_
A complete enumeration was conducted in all barangays nationwide to obtain

population count and data on selected characteristics of the household population,
household and housing characteristics, and registration of deaths among members
of the household in the last two years. For institutional population, selected
characteristics were also gathered.
Information about households of Filipinos working in Philippine embassies in

foreign countries, as well as homeless population were likewise gathered and
included in the total population of the country.

HIGHLIGHTS
The population of the Philippines as of August 1, 2015 based on the 2015 Census
of Population (POPCEN 2015) was 100.98 million persons. This is higher by 8.64 million
persons compared with the population of 92.34 million in 2010, and by 24.47 million
compared with the population of 76.50 million in 2000. The aforecited population figures
excluded Filipinos in Philippine embassies, consulates, and missions abroad.
The Philippine population increased

by 1.72 percent annually, on average,
during the period 2010 to 2015. By
comparison, the rate at which the
country’s population grew during the
period 2000 to 2010 was higher at 1.90
percent.
With a total land area of

approximately 300,000 square kilometers,
the population density of the Philippines in
2015 was posted at 337 persons per
square kilometer. This represents an
increase of 29 persons per square
kilometer (9.4 percent) from the
population density of 308 persons per
square kilometer in 2010. In 2000, there
were 255 persons residing in every square
kilometer of land. See Figure 1.
Table 1 presents the population,

land area, and population density of the
Philippines by region in 2015.
Population figures were based from the results of the POPCEN 2015
conducted by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA). The land areas, meanwhile,
were based on the 2013 Masterlist of Land Areas of Cities and Municipalities of the
Land Management Bureau.
In terms of population, Region IV-A – CALABARZON was the most populous

among the country’s 18 administrative regions, with 14.41 million persons, followed
by the National Capital Region (NCR) with 12.88 million persons and Region III –
Central Luzon with 11.22 million persons. The Cordillera Administrative Region
(CAR) registered the smallest population size of 1.72 million persons.
The three biggest regions in terms of land area were: Autonomous Region in
Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) with 36,650.95 square kilometers; Region II – Cagayan
Valley, 29,836.88 square kilometers; and MIMAROPA Region, 29,606.25 square
kilometers. The NCR was smallest with a land area of 619.54 square kilometers.
Highlights
By region, NCR was the most densely populated with a population density of
20,785 persons per square kilometer. This figure is more than 60 times higher than
the population density of 337 persons per square kilometer at the national level.
This translates to an additional 1,648 persons per square kilometer (8.6 percent)
from the 19,137 persons per square kilometer in 2010. The population density of
the NCR in 2000 was 16,032 persons per square kilometer.
Aside from the NCR, five other regions surpassed the national population
density. These were: Region IV-A (870 persons per square kilometer), Region VII (578
persons per square kilometer), Region III (512 persons per square kilometer), Region I
(388 persons per square kilometer), and Region VI (351 persons per square kilometer).
See also Figure 2.
The most sparsely populated region in 2015 was CAR, with 87 persons per
square kilometer.
