Disaster Prone Areas around the Barangay

DISASTER PRONE AREAS

Majority of the disaster prone areas are the parks and roads near the creeks. During the rainy season, sometimes the creeks overflow so the parks and roads become a bit flooded. Also, the two main roads, Acacia Avenue and Madrigal Avenue are also a big risk to disasters and accidents. Since the barangay is farthest from Laguna de Bay, it not that prone to floods, landslides and fires.

The whole barangay is at risk for being affected by earthquakes because of the Valley System Fault which is an active earthquake fault that can affect Metro Manila and surrounding provinces. The West Valley Fault line may add to the number of fault in the city of Muntinlupa which will create more damage to properties.
