Mabalacat, officially Mabalacat City [5] (Kapampangan : Lakanbalen/Ciudad ning Mabalacat; Filipino : Lungsod ng Mabalacat), is a 3rd class component city in the province of Pampanga, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 293,244 people. [3]

Contents

Mabalacat is in the urban core of Metro Clark, [6] also known as Metro Angeles, an urban area in Pampanga. This area is considered the industrial and residential heartland of Central Luzon. [7] Metro Clark is also identified as a regional center by the national government. [6]

Etymology

Mabalacat's name was derived from indigenous Negrito word mabalacat meaning "forest of balacats", a species of tree that were prominent in the area.

History

Old municipal hall

Prior to 1712, Mabalacat was a barrio (barangay) of Bambang (now Bamban, Tarlac). It became a town in 1792, and was named after the abundant Balacat tree ( Ziziphus talanai ), a fourth class timber tree with bark that possess antimicrobial properties. Once a settlement of an Aeta tribe, the area was a virtual forest of balacat trees. "Ma-balacat" in the native Kapampangan language means "full of Balacats." Mabalacat in Maranao is "Mababaapalaqat" (Palacat), which means "maiksing hagdan" in Tagalog.

In 1853, Mabalacat had a population of 2,611 and four barangays, namely, Babangdapu, Duquit, Malabni, and Paglimbunan. By 1903 its population increased to 7,049 in 19 barangays. These were Bical, Bundagul, Dapdap, Dau, Dolores, Iba, Mabiga, Mamatitang, Mangalit, Matas, Mawaque, Paralayunan, Poblacion, Quitangil (later renamed to San Francisco), San Joaquin, Santa Ines, Santa Maria, Sapang Balen, and Sapang Biabas. In 1948, Mabalacat's barangays increased to 20 with the addition of Fort Stotsenburg.

In 1860, a military command was established by authorities of the Spanish Governor-General due to the lawlessness and depredations perpetrated by the negritos (Aetas, or derogatorily called balugas). The Pampanga towns of Bamban, Capas, Concepcion, Victoria, Tarlac, Magalang, Porac, and Floridablanca and Mabalacat were created into what was called a Commandancia Militar. However, in 1873, the Military Command returned Mabalacat together with the towns of Magalang, Floridablanca, and Porac to the parent province, Pampanga.

Cityhood

The former municipality was officially upgraded to a city following a referendum on July 21, 2012, and became the third in Pampanga after Angeles City and San Fernando. It is home to roughly most of the Clark Freeport Zone, the rest in nearby Angeles, where the main gate is located. Clark International Airport, as well as the numerous hotels, casinos, golf courses, and resorts in Clark Freeport, are mostly situated in Mabalacat. [8]

Geography

Mabalacat has a land area of 83.18 square kilometers (32.12 sq mi). It is 93 kilometers (58 mi) from Manila, 10 kilometers (6.2 mi) from Angeles, and 27 kilometers (17 mi) from the provincial capital, San Fernando.

The soil is charcoal black and shiny, a sign of fertility, and is suitable for growing rice, sugarcane and other rootcrops. Like the neighbouring cities of Angeles and San Fernando and the towns/municipalities of Porac, Bacolor, Santa Rita, Mexico, Magalang and Arayat, this city rarely gets inundated by floods from heavy rains and typhoons because it is situated on an elevated, well-drained part of the Central Luzon plains known as the "Upper Pampanga".

Barangays

Mabalacat is politically subdivided into 27 barangays. Each barangay consists of puroks and some have sitios.

  • Atlu-Bola (San Isidro)
  • Bical (San Roque)
  • Bundagul (San Antonio)
  • Cacutud (San Roque)
  • Calumpang (San Jose Obrero)
  • Camachiles (Inmaculada Concepcion)
  • Dapdap (including Madapdap Resettlement: Santo Rosario)
  • Dau (Center Business Downtown: San Isidro)
  • Dolores (Virgen de Dolores)
  • Duquit (San Jose)
  • Lakandula (Virgen de Fatima)
  • Mabiga (San Rafael Arkanghel)
  • Macapagal Village (Inmaculada Concepcion)
  • Mamatitang (San Roque)
  • Mangalit (San Jose Obrero)
  • Marcos Village (San Martin de Porres)
  • Mawaque (Sta. Teresita)
  • Paralayunan (San Antonio)
  • Poblacion (Virgen de Gracia)
  • San Francisco (San Francisco de Assisi)
  • San Joaquin (San Joaquin y Sta. Ana)
  • Santa Ines (Sta. Ines de Roma)
  • Santa Maria (Sta. Maria Magdalena)
  • Santo Rosario (Virgen Santo Rosario)
  • Sapang Balen (San Carlos Borromeo)
  • Sapang Biabas (including Mauaque Resettlement: San Vicente Ferrer)
  • Tabun (San Isidro)

The largest barangay is Dau, which became a barrio in 1936 by virtue of Presidential Proclamation No. 1. It is now a business center whose commercial output runs parallel to that of downtown. A former terminus of the North Luzon Expressway, it is the most urban and most populous area in Mabalacat, home to roughly 23% of the city's population.

San Francisco, the second largest barangay, along with San Joaquin, Santa Ines, Poblacion, Calumpang and other barangays are categorized as urban in view of their proximity to the city proper. Sapang Balen, with a population of 166 persons, is the smallest barangay.

City Fiesta

Xevera Fountain

Legend tells us that when the early settlers were clearing the forests, Cabezang Laureana's workers found, hidden among the bushes, a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary with baby Jesus sitting on her lap. On February 2, the statue was presented by Caragan as a gift to Padre Maximo Manuguid, the priest of the early Mabalacat Church that was made of sawali and cogon grass. From then on, the city fiesta was observed on the second of February.

The old town hall was named Tabnuan: Mabalacat Cultural Center, or museum of arts, cultural displays and exhibits. It opened on February 28, 2024, the city’s Balacat Festival. [23]

Pastorella

The pastorella (Misa de Pastores in honor of the shepherds at the birth of Jesus Christ - a set of Latin hymns of the 9-day Christmas Masses) ceased in Pampanga towns for 40 years after Vatican II.

In Mabalacat, however, at Our Lady of Divine Grace Parish, pastorella lives on: In the 4:30 a.m. mass on Monday, the pastorella repertoire includes the Kyrie (Lord, Have Mercy), Gloria (Glory to God in the Highest), Credo (Nicene Creed), Sanctus (Holy) and Agnus Dei (Lamb of God). The hymns are in Latin, except for Kyrie, which is in Greek. [24]
