“Held” marks a term whose office-holder shares a surname with the term before it. Surnames, not people — a seat passing between relatives reads the same here as one person re-elected, and in most of these towns it is the more common of the two.

About these figures

Structure from the Philippine Standard Geographic Code; population and land area from Wikidata, which carries PSA’s census figures with their census dates. Population is the 2024 Census of Population. Elected officials are the winners in COMELEC’s 2025 Certificates of Canvass, holding office to June 30, 2028.

Sulu is excluded: the Supreme Court removed it from BARMM. PSA census totals that still count Sulu will therefore be larger than the totals here. Cotabato City is listed as an area of its own, though PSA files it inside Maguindanao del Norte — the provincial figure here has the city taken out of it so the two are not counted twice. Province land area is the province’s own published figure, never a sum of its municipalities: Philippine municipal areas are self-reported and overlap, so they do not add up to the province they sit in. A blank is a fact about the record, not a zero.

A dash means the record has no figure — not a zero. Boundaries and office-holders change; where this differs from an official page, the official page is right.
