Cebu City Barangays: Complete Directory and District Guide
Cebu City comprises 80 administrative barangays divided across two congressional districts: 46 in the North District and 34 in the South District. From the historical downtown port core and high density commercial IT parks to the expansive upland mountain ranges of the Central Cebu Protected Landscape, this authoritative directory maps every barangay community, administrative classification, economic hub, and local procurement resource.
Cebu City Barangay Governance and Electoral Subdivisions
As a first class, highly urbanized city independent of Cebu Province, Cebu City administers local government affairs through its 80 barangays organized into two distinct legislative districts.
Two Congressional Districts
Cebu City is partitioned into two congressional districts, each represented by a district representative in the Philippine House of Representatives and eight elected city councilors in the Sangguniang Panlungsod.
North District (1st Legislative District): Encompasses 46 barangays covering the northern coastline, the central downtown heritage perimeter, the uptown commercial belt (including Cebu IT Park in Apas and Cebu Business Park in Kamputhaw), and the northern upland watershed.
South District (2nd Legislative District): Encompasses 34 barangays covering the historic cradle of San Nicolas, dense residential belts like Guadalupe and Labangon, the South Road Properties (SRP) coastal corridor, and the southern mountain valleys.
Local Barangay Leadership Structure
Each barangay in Cebu City functions as a frontline unit of public service delivery under the Local Government Code of 1991 (Republic Act No. 7160).
Executive & Council: Led by a Punong Barangay (Barangay Captain) alongside seven elected Sangguniang Barangay Kagawads and an ex-officio SK Chairperson representing the youth sector.
Community Operations: Grassroots programs rely heavily on appointed officers including the Barangay Secretary, Barangay Treasurer, Lupong Tagapamayapa for neighborhood conciliation, Barangay Tanods for community peacekeeping, and Barangay Health Workers (BHWs) for primary medical care.
North District Barangays (46 Administrative Units)
The North District of Cebu City combines dynamic financial parks, educational institutions, historic port terminals, and lush upland flower farms stretching into the Transcentral Highway.
Commercial Powerhouse and Highland Eco-Corridor
The North District serves as the commercial engine of Central Visayas. Major corporate nodes such as Cebu IT Park (Barangay Apas), Cebu Business Park (Barangay Kamputhaw), and the university complexes in Talamban and Lahug generate high daytime commuter activity.
