Badian is a 3rd class municipality in the province of Cebu, Philippines. According to the 2007 census, it has
a population of 35,876 people.Badian is administratively subdivided into 29 barangays.
The capital barangay of Badian town is Poblacion. It is located basically in the center of the town. This is
where the local high school is located called Badian National High School (BNHS)is one of the two high schools in the town of Badian. This is also the largest of the two and many students from the neighboring town just like
Moalboal, Alcantara and Ronda come to study in this high school. The lower educational facility in Badian is
the Badian Central Elementary School where basically all the younger children go to school for the simple fact
that it is completely free and the only elementary school and the biggest one in town.
This is also the location where the town church is located the church of Santiago Apostol, which is celebrated
its Fest on the 25th of July every year. Together with the Feast of Santiago Apostle is the Banig Festival which
was started about 3 years ago. Poblacion is also where the Municipal Hall is located in sitio sawang.Thus, I
believe that the municipality should ought to have more fundings in the Hospital Facility more so that the roads
that they are trying to fix every single year Poblacion has many sitios which is the little corners of Poblacion
which is residential or commercial properties. Some of these sitios are; Syma, Walog, Sawang, HighWay,and
many more. This is the only urban place in Badian compared to any other barangays that surround the town.
