OLONGAPO
SUBIC: Best of the
Islands Philippines Situated
at the Southern entry point of Zambales and the Northwestern interior of the Subic
Bay area, Olongapo City approximately 127 kilometers North of Manila. It's total
land area of 18,500 hectares is distributed among 17 barangays (Asinan, East Bajac-Bajac,
Banicain, Baretto, New Cabalan, Old Cabalan, Gordon Heights, East Tapinac, West
Tapinac, Kababae, Kalalake, Ilalim, Kalaklan, Mabayuan, Pag-asa and Sta. Rita)
former US reservation and the Negrito Resettlement areas. Other than the city
proper, which is located on a 6.48 sq. kms. Tidal flatland, Olongapo City is characterized
by rugged and mountainous terrain.
Because
of its peculiar geographic location - the Zambales mountains on its three sides,
Bataan and Subic Bay at its base - development of city land is limited. Also,
the territorial borders from nearby towns are not properly marked. |

This isn't considered
to be a disadvantage, however, since this same position has situated Olongapo
City strategically within easy access from our neighbors in the Asia - Pacific,
resulting in a growing commercial relationship between the Philippines and the
said countries. The population of Olongapo
City is more than 310,000 and is projected to increase to 453,894 by the year
2000. This rapid growth is attributed to the heavy influx of migrants from neighboring
towns and other parts of the country, attracted by the booming industry and employment
opportunites offered by Olongapo City, through the Subic Bay Freeport.
There are no main dialects in Olongapo City.
The people generally speak and understand Filipino and English. Literacy
rate is 99.11 percent.
