Critical Data for Decision-Making of the Government and the Private Sector B-1
Introduction
The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) conducted the census-taking for the
2015 Census of Population (POPCEN 2015) in August to September 2015. This was the third census
of population that was undertaken in between two decennial censuses. Mid-decade censuses were
previously conducted in 1995 and 2007. POPCEN 2015 was the 14th census of population in the
country since the first census in 1903.
POPCEN 2015 was designed primarily to take an inventory of the total population in the
Philippines and collect basic information about its characteristics. It aimed to provide government
executives, policy makers, and planners with population data, especially updated population counts of
all barangays in the country, for use as bases in their social and economic development plans,
policies, and programs.
The census of population is the source of information on the size and distribution of the
population, as well as its demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. These information are vital
for making rational plans and programs for local and national development.
The population sizes and their geographic distribution were presented in the regional
volumes of POPCEN 2015 Report No. 1 (Population Count by Province, City/Municipality, and
Barangay). The population counts down to barangay level were declared official for all purposes by
former President Benigno S. Aquino III under Presidential Proclamation No. 1269 dated 13 May 2016.
Report No. 1 also presents the household population size, number of households, and average
household size (AHS) by city/municipality.
This report also presents the characteristics of the household population in terms of the
following:
The POPCEN 2015 Report No. 2 is published by province and highly urbanized city (HUC),
for a total of 105 publications, including the national volume.
The authority and mandate of 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 “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 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.
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 PSA, relative to this proclamation.
At the national level, a National Census Coordinating Board (NCCB), composed primarily of
the members of the PSA Board was created for POPCEN 2015. The National Statistician (NS) acted
as the Executive Officer of the NCCB, with the Secretary for Socioeconomic Planning of the National
Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) as Chairperson. PSA Board Resolution No. 07, Series
of 2014 - Designating the PSA Board as the NCCB for the POPCEN 2015, and Approving its Terms
of Reference (TOR) and Assistance to be Rendered to the PSA also enjoined all agencies and
instrumentalities of the national government, particularly the member-agencies of the NCCB to
provide assistance to PSA in connection with POPCEN 2015.
As part of the PSA Board’s function of establishing mechanisms for statistical coordination at
the regional and LGU levels, the PSA Board has approved PSA Board Resolution No. 09,
Series of 2014 - Approving the Composition and TOR of the Regional, Provincial, City, and Municipal
Census Coordinating Boards for the POPCEN 2015.
The Regional Statistical Services Office (RSSO) was responsible for the entire census
operation in the region. Specifically, it was responsible for the coordination, monitoring, and
supervision of the conduct of enumeration in the areas under its jurisdiction. As stipulated in the PSA
Board Resolution No. 09, Series of 2014, the PSA Regional Director (RD) acted as the Executive
Officer of the Regional Census Coordinating Board (RCCB), with the NEDA RD as Chairperson. In
the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM), the RD coordinated with the ARMM regional
government regarding the conduct of the POPCEN 2015, including the organization and convening of
the R/P/C/MCCBs, with TORs and membership in accordance with PSA Board Resolution No. 09,
whenever appropriate and practicable. In the case of the National Capital Region (NCR) where there
is no NEDA regional office, an official of the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG)
was designated as chairperson of the RCCB.
The Provincial Statistics Officer (PSO) of the PSA Provincial Statistical Office (PO) acted as
the Executive Officer of the Provincial Census Coordinating Board (PCCB), with the Provincial
Governor as Chairperson. Due to the absence of provinces in NCR, no PCCBs were established in
the region.
At the city/municipality level, the statistician/permanent staff of the PO acted as the Executive
Officer of the City/Municipal Census Coordinating Board (C/MCCB), with the City/Municipal Mayor as
Chairperson.
PSA, headed by the NS, was the agency mandated to formulate and execute plans for
POPCEN 2015. All directives pertaining to the census emanated from the Office of the NS. The NS
was the Chairperson of the Census Steering Committee (CSC) for POPCEN 2015. The CSC was
responsible for the overall guidance of the conduct of the census. The NS was assisted by the
Deputy National Statistician (DNS) of the Census and Technical Coordination Office (CTCO). Specific
instructions and orders were delegated to the field supervisors through a chain of command.
For the entire duration of the census, the DNS of CTCO, together with the Assistant National
Statistician (ANS) of the CTCO-National Censuses Service (NCS) supervised the entire operations of
the census. Under the supervision of the ANS of NCS was the Population and Housing Census
Division (PHCD), which was responsible for the planning, implementation, and technical supervision
of the census operations. The ANS of the CTCO-Information Technology and Dissemination Service
(ITDS), on the other hand, supervised the Systems Development Division (SDD), the unit responsible
for the development of the entire machine processing system of the census in the Field Offices (FOs)
and Central Office (CO); as well as the Systems Operations and Infrastructure Division (SOID), which
spearheaded all census mapping activities. The ANS of the Finance and Administrative Service
(FAS), under the Civil Registration and Central Support Office (CRCSO), meanwhile, was responsible
for transferring funds to FOs and the procurement and other logistics requirements at the national
level. Both ITDS and FAS closely coordinated with NCS on all POPCEN 2015 concerns to ensure the
smooth flow of operation. The POPCEN 2015 Census Project Staff (CPS 2015) which was created at
NCS, served as the monitoring hub and communications and action center for the nationwide
undertaking. All communications to and from CO and FOs were sent to CPS 2015.
At the regional level, RSSO was responsible for the entire census operation in the region.
Specifically, it was responsible for the coordination, monitoring, and supervision of the conduct of
enumeration in the areas under its jurisdiction.
Further, RSSO managed the POPCEN 2015 Data Processing Center (DPC 2015) in the
provinces under its jurisdiction, as well as the POPCEN 2015 Scan Station (SS 2015) in RSSO, if
any. DPC 2015 was responsible for the manual and machine processing of the Census of Population
(CP) forms and maps. SS 2015, on the other hand, took charge of the scanning/interpretation and
archiving of the forms and maps. Selected DPC 2015 had their own SS 2015.
A Regional Census Project Staff (RCPS) was formed in RSSO. It was headed by the Chief of
the Statistical Operations and Coordination Division (SOCD) in RSSO and included concerned
statistical and other permanent staff, and hired census staff. The RCPS was in charge of all aspects
of the census in the region, including data processing and evaluation.
At the provincial level, PO was directly responsible for the coordination, monitoring, and
supervision of the field operations in the areas under its jurisdiction.
PO supervised the operations in DPC 2015. Further, all provinces designated to host the
entire machine processing had direct supervision over the scanning/interpretation and archiving of the
CP forms and maps in DPC 2015.
A Provincial Census Project Staff (PCPS) was established in PO. It was headed by a
permanent statistician of the PO. The PCPS was in charge of all aspects of the census in the
province, including data processing and evaluation.
The Head Census Area Supervisor (CAS), who was a statistician/permanent staff of PO was
responsible, on a fulltime basis, for the coordination, supervision, and monitoring of the conduct of
enumeration in the cities/municipalities under his/her jurisdiction. He/She supervised all the hired
CASs assigned in his/her areas. The number of hired CASs supervised by a Head CAS depended on
the number of PO statisticians/staff available and the number of hired CASs in PO.
The hired CAS was responsible for a group of five teams, with each team consisting of one
team supervisor (TS) and four enumerators (ENs). Generally, his/her teams covered a
city/municipality. However, in big cities or municipalities, two or more hired CASs were assigned.
The TS was in charge of supervising around four ENs. He/She was responsible to report to
his/her CAS the progress of enumeration in the areas assigned to him/her.
The EN, on the other hand, was responsible for the complete enumeration in the area/s
assigned to him/her.
Method of Enumeration
The gathering of population and housing data was performed by the census ENs through
house-to-house visits and interview of a responsible member of each household. Self-Administered
Questionnaires (SAQs) and/or Electronic Questionnaires (E-QNs) were provided to households living
in special areas, such as high-rise buildings/condominiums, exclusive subdivisions/villages and
townhouses, and institutional living quarters (ILQs) 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.
A complete enumeration was conducted in all barangays nationwide to obtain the population
count and data on selected demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of the household
population. Also asked were selected housing characteristics. For institutional population, selected
demographic and socioeconomic characteristics were likewise gathered.
Most of the operational definitions and concepts adopted in POPCEN 2015 have also been
used in past censuses of population. The use of the same operational definitions of terms and
concepts and adherence to national and international standards in population censuses aimed at
ensuring the comparability of census results across different census years and census data of other
countries. The POPCEN 2015 ENs were instructed to adhere strictly to these operational definitions.
Barangay
A barangay is the smallest political unit in the country. Generally, one EN was assigned to
enumerate one barangay. To facilitate enumeration, large barangays were divided into parts, and
each part was called an enumeration area (EA).
The official list of barangays of DILG based on the Philippine Standard Geographic Code
(PSGC) as of December 2015 was used for POPCEN 2015.
All persons were enumerated in their usual place of residence, which refers to the geographic
place (street, sitio/purok, 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.
Building
A building is defined as any structure built, designed or intended for the enclosure, shelter or
protection of any person, animal or property. It consists of one or more rooms and/or other spaces,
covered by a roof, and usually enclosed within external walls or with common dividing walls with
adjacent buildings, which usually extend from the foundation to the roof.
For purposes of the census, only those buildings which contained living quarters, whether
occupied or vacant, were listed.
Living quarters are structurally separate and independent places of abode. They may:
1. have been constructed, built, converted or arranged for human habitation, provided that
they were not, at the time of the census, used wholly for other purposes, or
2. have been constructed for purposes other than human habitation but were actually used
as living quarters at the time of the census.
Housing unit
A housing unit is a structurally separate and independent place of abode which, by the way it
has been constructed, converted or arranged, is intended for habitation by one or more households.
Structures or parts of structures which were not intended for habitation, such as commercial,
industrial, and agricultural buildings, or natural and man-made shelters such as boats, abandoned
trucks, culverts, and others, but which were used as living quarters by households, were also
considered as housing units.
A housing unit is generally intended for habitation by one household. However, in some
cases, two or more households may share the same building or the same housing unit as their place
of habitation. The building may have more than one housing unit but from its physical layout, the
different housing units may not be discernible.
1. Separateness – the portion of a building had facilities for sleeping, preparing and taking
meals, and its occupants were isolated from other households in the building by means of
walls or permanent partitions, and
2. Direct access – the portion of the building had direct access from the outside of the
building, that is, the occupants can come in to the portion of the building without passing
through anybody else’s premises from the street, pathway, alley, road, yard, catwalk,
public or communal staircase, passage, gallery, ground or through a common hall.
The place of abode of an institutional population is not called a housing unit; it is referred to
as an ILQ. An ILQ is a structurally separate and independent place of abode intended for habitation
by large groups of individuals (10 or more). Such quarter usually has certain common facilities such
as kitchen and dining room, toilet and bath, and lounging area, which are shared by the occupants.
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, however, several generations of familial ties are
represented in one household while, still in others, even more distant relatives are considered as
members of the household.
Household helpers, boarders, and nonrelatives were considered members of the household,
provided that they slept in the same housing unit and had common arrangement in the preparation
and consumption of food and did not usually go home to their family at least once a week.
A person who shared a housing unit with a household but separately cooked his/her meals or
consumed his/her food elsewhere was not considered a member of the household he/she shared the
housing unit with. This person was listed as a separate household.
Household population
Household population comprises persons who belong to a household. The basic criterion in
determining household membership 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. It is the place where he/she usually sleeps.
Institutional population
Institutional population comprises 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.
As in past censuses, ENs of POPCEN 2015 were provided with guidelines on whom to list as
members of a household and ILQ. This helped ensure uniformity in determining household
membership, institutional population, and in identifying persons to be included in the enumeration or
excluded from it. Further, this prevented omission or duplication in the enumeration of persons and
households during the census-taking. The following guidelines were used in determining the
household membership and institutional population:
1. Those who were present at the time of the visit and whose usual place of residence was
the housing unit where the household lived,
2. Family members who were overseas workers and who were away at the time of the
census and were expected to be back within five years from the date of their last
departure,
3. Those whose usual place of residence was the place where the household lived but were
temporarily away at the time of the census for any of the following reasons:
a. on vacation, business/pleasure trip, or training somewhere in the Philippines and
were expected to be back within six months from the date of their departure,
b. on vacation, business/pleasure trip, or studying/training abroad and were expected to
be back within a year from the date of their departure,
c. working or attending school outside their usual place of residence but usually came
home at least once a week,
d. confined in hospitals for a period of not more than six months as of the time of
enumeration, except when they were confined as patients in mental hospitals,
leprosaria/leper colonies or drug rehabilitation centers, regardless of the duration of
their confinement,
e. detained in national/provincial/city/municipal jails or in military camps for a period of
not more than six months at the time of enumeration, except when their sentence or
detention was expected to exceed six months,
f. on board coastal, interisland, or fishing vessels within Philippine territories, and
g. on board oceangoing vessels but were expected to be back within five years from the
date of their departure,
4. Boarders/lodgers of a household or employees of household-operated businesses who
did not usually return/go to their respective homes weekly,
5. Citizens of foreign countries who had resided or were expected to reside in the
Philippines for at least a year from their arrival, except members of diplomatic missions
and non-Filipino members of international organizations,
6. Filipino balikbayans with usual place of residence in a foreign country but had resided or
were expected to reside in the Philippines for at least a year from their arrival, and
7. Those temporarily staying with the household who had no usual place of residence or
who were not certain to be enumerated elsewhere.
The following persons were not considered members of the institutional population and
were included in the households to which they belonged:
1. Military officials/enlisted men or draftees (and members of their households) who had
housing units within military installations or camps,
2. Managers (and members of their households) of refugee camps, dormitories, hotels,
hospitals, and others, who occupied and regularly used as their place of abode a living
quarter in the institution that they managed, and
3. Priests, who together with their relatives and/or household help, occupied and regularly
used as their place of abode a living quarter in the church or seminary.
Included in the enumeration were those who were alive as of the census reference date,
that is, 12:01 a.m. of 1 August 2015. Specifically, these were the following:
Excluded from the enumeration were the following persons, although they happened to
be within the territorial jurisdiction of the Philippines at the time of the census enumeration:

increase in the total population count from 2010 to 2015
1990 60.7
translated into an average annual population growth rate
(PGR) of 1.72 percent. This was lower than the 1.90 percent 1995 68.6
annual PGR of the country between the census years 2000 2000 76.5
and 2010. 2010 92.3
2015 101.0
If the average annual PGR recorded at 1.72 percent during
Source: PSA, 2015 Census of Population
the period 2010 to 2015 continues, the population of
Philippines would double in approximately 41 years.
Males accounted for 50.6 percent of the country’s total population in 2015, while females comprised
the remaining 49.4 percent. These figures resulted in a sex ratio of 102 males for every 100 females.
The same sex ratio was recorded in 2010.
Regions VIII, XI, and Caraga posted the highest sex ratio of 106 each. Moreover, NCR and ARMM
were the only regions which reported more females than males, that is, with sex ratios 98 and 99,
respectively.
The voting-age population or persons 18 years old and over accounted for 62.0 percent (62,615,419

The overall dependency ratio of the Philippines was 58, which indicated that for every 100 working-
age population, there were about 58 dependents (50 young dependents and eight old dependents).
Higher dependency ratio was recorded in 2010, at 60 dependents per 100 working-age population
(53 young dependents and seven old dependents).
There were more males than females among the never-married persons
Of the 79,317,452 total population aged 10 years and over, 43.9 percent was never married while

baccalaureate/college degree, the females (56.0 percent) outnumbered the males (44.0 percent).
Similarly, more females (59.9 percent) than males (40.1 percent) had pursued post baccalaureate
courses.
Almost four fifths (79.5 percent or 80,304,061 persons) of the total population of the Philippines in
2015 reported Roman Catholic as their religious affiliation. The corresponding figure in 2010 was
80.6 percent (74,407,708 persons).
The next largest religious affiliation in the country was Islam, comprising 6.0 percent of the total
population. It was followed by those who were affiliated with the Iglesia ni Cristo (2.6 percent share).
In 2015, the household population of the Philippines reached 100,573,715 persons, representing
99.6 percent of the country’s total population. The remaining 0.4 percent (405,588 persons) was
comprised of the institutional population or those residing in collective or institutional living quarters
such as dormitories/lodging houses, prisons, seminaries/convents, military camps, and logging and
construction camps and Filipinos in Philippine embassies, consulates, and missions abroad
