Poblacion District refers to the poblacion (city center) of Malaybalay, Philippines. It is composed of eleven barangays and has an aggregate population of 26,579 and an area of 12.72 square kilometers. It is bounded to the north by Sumpong, to the east by Can-ayan, to the south by Casisang, and to the west by Kalasungay.
The district is located in central Malaybalay along the Sawaga River, which splits the district roughly into two parts. The eastern half is densely populated and comprises the barangays 1 to 9. The western half is a former sitio called Impalambong and is composed of Barangay 10 and Barangay 11. The eastern boundary is hilly while the west is an undulating terrain.
Historyedit
Poblacion was its own barangay since the foundation of Malaybalay in 1877. Since then, sitios such as Sumpong and Casisang were separated to become their own barangays. In 1972, then Mayor Timoteo Ocaya implemented the subdivision of Barangay Poblacion, including Impalambong, by virtue of Presidential Decrees no. 86,[1] 86A,[2] and 210.[3] This created twenty new barangays from Poblacion, based on the purok system, where purok leaders were appointed as provisional Barangay Chairmen.[4] The system proved cumbersome and unwieldy which led to the Municipal Council of Malaybalay to pass Ordinance No. 87 in 1974, downsizing the number of barangays to eleven. New borders were drawn such that some of the barangays are merged, parceled out to other barangays, or split. Impalambong, a sitio of Poblacion, was split into Barangay 18, Barangay 19, and Barangay 20 in 1972. By 1974, the new ordinance designated Barangay 18 as Barangay 10[5] and merged Barangay 19 and Barangay 20 to form Barangay 11.[6] In the town proper, Barangay 1 and Barangay 6 were merged to form Barangay 1;[4] Barangay 13, Barangay 14, and Barangay 17 were merged to form Barangay 7;[7] Barangay 15 was dismembered to form parts of the present-day Barangay 6 and Barangay 8.[8] The current designation (i.e. number) of barangays of Poblacion District was not necessarily designated as the number it was originally assigned in 1972. Furthermore, the dissolution of Barangay Poblacion in 1972 and its subsequent reorganization in 1974 led to the creation of the Administrative District of Poblacion when Malaybalay was converted into a city in 1998.
