The City of Iloilo was originally referred to only as what is now known as Iloilo City Proper until July 16, 1937, when the surrounding municipalities of Arevalo, La Paz, Mandurriao, and Molo were consolidated with the city after it was re-chartered by the American government.[1] The city of Jaro followed suit and was absorbed into Iloilo City on January 7, 1941. The sub-district of Lapuz became a separate district from La Paz on December 17, 2008, making it the seventh and youngest district of Iloilo City.[2]
Description and list of barangays
editIloilo City is composed of one legislative district, which has been divided into seven administrative districts, each of which consists of barangays.
Iloilo City Proper
editCity Proper is the second-most densely populated district and the heart of Iloilo City.[3][4] It serves as the civic center of the city, housing the seat of the city and provincial government buildings, as well as other local, provincial, and regional government offices of the Western Visayas region.[5] All the economic activities in the city have been mainly concentrated in the district since the 19th century; however, in the 21st century, they have slowly shifted to the districts of Mandurriao and Jaro due to a lack of space for new developments in the old City Proper.[6] Iloilo City Proper is known for its late 19th and early 20th century commercial structures, such as the Eusebio Villanueva Building, the Javellana Building, the Aduana Building, etc., which can be found on every major street of the district.
Barangays
editIloilo City Proper has the most barangays in Iloilo City with a total of 45 barangays. City Proper is the second-most densely populated Iloilo City district with a population density of 12,435 people per square kilometer.
