FOREWORD
This publication presents the results of the 2016 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey
(APIS 2016). This survey round is the eleventh in a series of poverty surveys since
1998 and it is designed to provide information on the socio-economic profile of
families and other information related to their living condition.
It provides information on the demographic characteristics, education, economic

characteristics, housing characteristics, access to safe water supply and sanitation,
expenditure and income of the families, and other information that can be used to
assess and monitor the poverty situation in the country.
The report aims to provide statistics to the planners and policy makers as inputs to
planning, assessment and evaluation of the various programs designed to reduce
poverty incidence in the country. The APIS offers data for general public,
researchers, or institutions which may be used for studies related to poverty and its
correlates like education; water, sanitation and housing; and employment.
The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) wishes to extend its sincerest gratitude to
the individuals and organizations who contributed to the successful completion of the
APIS 2016. Above all, we thank the thousand of households who generously shared
their time, effort and information during the data collection.

Philippine Statistics Authority 2016 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey vii

BACKGROUND
The 2016 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey (APIS) is the eleventh in a series
of poverty indicators survey conducted nationwide since 1998. The survey gathers
data that can be used to generate income and non-income based poverty indicators
to assess and monitor the poverty situation in the country. It was the third APIS that
utilized a more detailed set of questions that gather information about family income.
Objectives of the Survey
The APIS is designed to provide estimates for income and non-income

indicators related to poverty. It gathers data on the socio-economic profile of families
and other information that are related to their living conditions.
Specifically, it generates information on indicators that are correlated with

poverty in order to:
1. Determine family income;

2. Determine family expenditure pattern;
3. Determine the percent distribution of families in relation to the following
indicators:
a. ownership or owner-like possession of house and lot and the types of

the materials of the roofs and walls of their housing units;
b. access to safe water and sanitation and type of toilet facility they use in
their homes;
c. children 6-11 years old enrolled in Grade I to Grade VI;
d. children 12-15 years old enrolled in Grade VII to Grade X;
e. with members 18 years old and over who are gainfully employed and
with working children 5-17 years old;
f. loan availed and its sources;
g. with members who received social protection and the total amount
received for the period January-June 2016; and
h. awareness on drug abuse problem and prevention.
Sampling Design
The 2016 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey (APIS 2016) utilized the 2013
Master Sample (2013 MS) for household-based surveys of the Philippine Statistics
Authority (PSA). The 2013 MS is designed to produce reliable quarterly estimates of
selected indicators at the national and regional levels. The design can also provide
reliable province level estimates after completing four quarterly rounds.
In the 2013 MS, each sampling domain (i.e, province/HUC) is subdivided into
numbers of exhaustive and non-overlapping area segments known as Primary
Sampling Units (PSUs). Each PSU is formed to consist of about 100 to 400
households. A single PSU can be a barangay/Enumeration Area (EA) or a portion of
Philippine Statistics Authority 2016 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey 1

Background
a large barangay or two or more adjacent small barangays/EAs. For the whole
country, about 81 thousand PSUs are formed from more than 42 thousand
barangays.
From the ordered list of PSUs, all possible systematic samples of 6 PSUs
were drawn to form a replicate for the most of the province domain or 75 out of 81
provinces. On the other hand, for the majority of highly urbanized cities, all possible
systematic samples of 8 PSUs will be drawn to form a replicate.
The APIS 2016 used one replicate of the quarterly sample of the MS or about
11,000 sample households deemed sufficient for national estimates.
Response Rate
Of the 10,642 eligible sample households for the APIS 2016, 10,332 were
successfully interviewed. This translated to a response rate of 97.1 percent at the
national level. The response rate is the ratio of the total households who were
completely interviewed to the total eligible households. Eligible households consisted
of households who were completely interviewed, refused to be interviewed,
temporarily away, not at home or on vacation, and those located in critical or flooded
areas during the survey period.
Limitations of the Data
Data gathered from APIS are results of a sample survey and are therefore
subject to sampling variations, that is, sampling errors are expected since the data
are not obtained through complete enumeration or census.
The survey covered a national sample of households deemed sufficient to

provide estimates about the population at the national level only. Hence, tabulations
and cross-tabulations of variables at lower geographic levels are not generated since
these may not be statistically reliable.
Survey estimates may also be affected by non-sampling errors such as

deliberate under or over reporting of income and expenditures or unwillingness on
the part of the respondents to reveal their true levels of income/expenditures.
Moreover, considering that both cash and non-cash expenditures and income
are gathered in APIS, valuation of non-cash income and expenditures may cause
some problems. The instructions are to use market prices prevailing in the locality
for goods and services received as gifts, and farm gate prices for goods consumed
from own production. However, market prices may not be available for all items in
the locality or market prices/farm gate prices may be highly unpredictable for
different localities.
Furthermore, data users attempting to match the APIS and the Family Income
and Expenditures Survey (FIES) should take note of the differences in the reference
period. The FIES is conducted in two visits covering the periods January to June and
July to December while the APIS covers January to June only.
2 Philippine Statistics Authority 2016 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey

Background
Survey Questionnaire
APIS Form 1 is the survey questionnaire that contains questions on the

following topics:
 Geographic Identification and Other Family Information - region,

province, municipality, barangay, address, design codes, result of visit and
code, names of household head and respondent and the certification
portion.
 Demographic Characteristics - obtain information of all family members

such as name of family head, relationship to the head, sex, age and
marital status.
 Schooling Status and Highest Grade Completed - determines whether

a family member aged 3 to 24 years is currently attending formal school,
and if so, the grade or year the member is currently attending. If not
attending, then the reason for not attending school is asked. It determines
if the family members 3 to 5 years old are attending/have attended early
education or learning system in order to assess their ‘school readiness’. It
also determines the educational attainment of the family members 5 years
old and over.
 Economic Characteristics - obtain information on the job or business of

each family member 5 years old and over have during the past six months.
It also includes questions on occupation and business the family member
engaged in.
 Drug Awareness and Prevention – obtains information about family’s

knowledge and/or perception about drug problem in the barangay or
community. It also determines the awareness of family on the various
programs or activities being implemented to address the drug problem in
the barangay or community.
 Housing, Water and Sanitation - obtains information about the family’s

housing characteristics and conveniences/amenities owned by the family.
The main source of water supply and kind of toilet facility they used.
 Other Relevant Information - to determine whether or not the family

makes use of any form of credit in financing the family’s needs. It also
determines the source of loan. Also obtains information if a family
member experienced hunger because he or she did not have food to eat.
 Social Protection – obtains information about programs that seek to

reduce poverty and vulnerability to risks and enhance the social status and
rights of the marginalized by promoting and protecting their livelihood and
employment, protecting them against hazards and sudden interruptions or
loss of income, and improving their capacity to manage risks.

Background
 Family Expenditures - determines the expenses made by the family

purely from family members’ personal consumption.
 Income - obtains information on the employment status of each family

member 10 years old and over. It also includes questions on occupation
and business the family member engaged in during the past six months
and salaries and wages from employment of each working family member.
 Net Share of Crops, Fruits and Vegetables Produced, Aquaculture

Products Harvested or Livestock and Poultry Raised by Other
Households - this is the net share from crops, fruits and vegetables
produced, aquaculture products harvested or livestock and poultry raised
by other family even without a landlord-tenant relationship.
 Family Sustenance Activities (FSA) – includes activities in the

production of goods mainly for home consumption only and if there was a
disposal, consumed and/or a small proportion was sold, given away, etc.
during the reference period.
 Other Sources of Income - obtains information on other sources of

income not derived from work.
 Entrepreneurial Activities – are activities that determine if any member

of the family is engaged as operator or self-employed in any agricultural or
non-agricultural family-operated activities. If engaged, this section asks for
the total net income, value consumed and value given away as gifts of the
products derived/produced from such activity.
Concepts and Definitions
Bottom 30% – The Bottom 30% refers to families in the bottom 30 percent of the
total income distribution arranged in descending order of the family per capita
income. This grouping of families was used as a proxy for those falling below the
poverty line.
Top 70% – The Upper 70 % refers to the upper 70 percent of the total families in the
income distribution arranged in descending order of the family per capita income. It
is the complement of the bottom 30 percent.
Respondent – An adult knowledgeable member of the sample family who can

provide accurate answers to all or most of the questions in the survey.
Family – Aggregate of persons bound by ties of kinship, who live together under the
same roof and eat together or share in common the family food. For the purpose of
this survey, a family can be classified as a nuclear family, extended family or a single
person family. For a household comprising of members who are not related with
each other by blood, marriage or adoption, only the head of the household is
considered. This case is a single person family.

Background
Family head - An adult member of the family who is responsible for the care and
organization of the family or who is regarded as such by the members of the family.
Highest educational attainment - The highest grade or year completed in

elementary and post secondary schools, colleges or universities.
Work - Any activity a person does for pay, profit or without pay on family farm or
enterprise, or an activity done by a farm operator or member of his family on
another’s farm on “exchange labor” arrangement. In addition, any activity that a
person does during the reference period in relation to minor activities such as home
gardening, raising of crops or fruit bearing trees, raising hogs/poultry, and fishing for
home consumption, and manufacturing for home use are also considered as work.
Floor area - The area enclosed by the exterior walls of the housing unit. In case of
several floors, the area of the housing unit is the sum of areas of all floors.
Family expenditures – refer to the expenses or disbursement made by the family

purely for personal consumption during January to June 2016. Value consumed from
net share of crops, fruits and vegetables produced, aquaculture products harvested
or livestock raised by other households, family sustenance and entrepreneurial
activities are considered as family expenditures. Gifts, support, assistance or relief in
goods and services received by the family from friends, relatives, and others, are
also included as part of family expenditure.
They exclude all expenses in relation to farm or business operations,

investment ventures, purchase of real property, and other disbursements which do
not involve personal consumption.
Family income - total family income includes primary income and receipts from
other sources received by all family members during January to June 2016, as
participants in any economic activity or as recipients of transfers, pensions or grants.
Primary income includes: salaries and wages, commissions, tips, bonuses, family
and clothing allowances, transportation and representation allowances, honoraria,
and other forms of compensation; and net receipts derived from the operation of
family-operated enterprises or activities, and practice of a profession or trade.
Income from other sources include: imputed rental values of owner-occupied

dwelling units, interest, rentals including landowner’s share of agricultural products,
pensions, support, and value of food and non-food items received as gifts by the
family (as well as the imputed value of services rendered free of charge to the
family). Also included as part of family income are receipts from family sustenance
activities which are not considered as family-operated enterprise.

asbestos to the total number of families.
Proportion of families with gainfully employed family head – The ratio of the
number of families with a family head who is gainfully employed to the total number
of families.
Proportion of families with gainfully employed members 18 years old and over
– The ratio of the number of families with gainfully employed members 18 years old
and over to the total number of families with members 18 years old and over.
Proportion of families with children 6-11 years old in elementary – The ratio of
the number of families with children 6-11 years old attending Grade I to Grade VI to
the total number of families with children 6-11 years old.
Proportion of families with children 12-15 years old in high school – The ratio of

of the number of families with children 5-17 years old who are working to the total
number of families with children 5-17 years old.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE APIS 2016 RESULTS
Results of the survey are presented in this report using the Bottom 30% and
Top 70% income strata. These strata were formed according to families per capita
income arranged from highest to lowest, wherein the first stratum is composed of
families whose income fall or at the bottom 30% while the second group comprised
of families belonging to the top 70% of the income bracket.

A.3 Educational Attainment of Family Head
Around one in every four (26.8%) family heads had at least completed high
school education. Specifically, about 13.4 percent attended/finished post secondary
education or reached college but did not finish it, and 11.1 percent completed college
or higher level of education.
The survey showed that a higher proportion of female heads (26.2%) had at
least reached college level compared to their male (18.4%) counterpart. Only
around one in every 10 male heads (9.6%) were college graduate or higher vis-à-vis
the 16.4 percent among female heads. Heads of families belonging to the Bottom
30% income stratum tend to attain lower level of education than the family heads
among the Top 70% group. About 4.7 percent of family heads in the Bottom 30%
had at least college education compared with 26.6 percent in the Top 70% group
(Table 1).

B. HOUSING CHARACTERISTICS
The data on family’s housing characteristics can indicate the health and
economic well being of families. In the APIS 2016, the tenure status of housing unit
and lot, the floor area of housing unit, type of building or house and the construction
materials of the roof and outer walls of the building were asked. Questions on the
presence of electricity, main source of water supply, type of toilet facility used by the
family were also included.
B.1 Tenure Status of Housing Unit and Lot
In 2016 nearly 6 in 10 families (61.0%) own the house and lot they occupied.
The remaining 39 percent occupied houses and lots under the following tenure: own
house, rent-free lot with consent of owner (17.3%), rent house/room including lot
(10.1%), rent-free house and lot with consent of owner (7.2%), own house, rent-free
lot without consent of owner (2.3%), own house, rent lot (1.4%), or rent-free house
and lot without consent of owner (less than one percent). Among families in the
Bottom 30% stratum, 53.7 percent owned their house and lot, while 64.2 percent
among families in the Top 70% group.

30% stratum resided in housing unit with floor area of at least 50 sq.m.. In contrast, 4
in 10 families among the Top 70% group were residing in similar floor area (Table 3).

B.3 Type of Building/House
Ninety-two percent of Filipino families were residing in single houses (Table

4). The rest dwelt in apartments, accessoria, condominiums or townhouses (6.1%),
duplex houses (2.0%), or commercial, industrial, agricultural buildings or houses
(less than one percent).

B.4 Construction Materials of the Roof and Outer Walls
Most of the roofs and a great majority of the outer walls of houses in the
Philippines were made of strong materials. Strong materials refer to galvanized iron
or aluminum, tile, concrete, brick stone, while light materials refer to cogon, nipa or

anahaw. About 84.3 percent of families had houses with strong roofs and 69.1
percent had strong outer walls (Tables 5 and 6).
As expected, a larger proportion of the Top 70% group of families had

housing units made of strong roofs (90.6%) and outer walls (79.6%) compared to the
Bottom 30% families (69.6% and 44.6%, respectively). One in every five families in
Bottom 30% group of families were living in a house with roof made of light materials
(24.3%), and almost four in every 10 families (36.7%) were living in houses with
outer walls made of light materials.

B.5 Electricity
Almost all families have electricity in their homes. About 91.4 percent of
families in the country have electricity in their homes, on the other hand, very few
families does not have electricity. Four-fifth of families (79.8%) in the Bottom 30%
stratum had electricity in their homes (Table 7).

B.8 Household Conveniences
Data on ownership of family conveniences provide proxy indicators of the

economic status of the family. Cellular phone was the most common (84.8%)
household appliance in Filipino homes, followed by television (73.8%) [Table 9].

C.2 Attendance in School of Persons 3 to 24 Years Old
In this survey, persons who were enrolled in the school year covering June
2016 to March 2017 were considered as attending school. School refers to formal
schools, including vocational/technical schools offering post-secondary courses.
Information on attendance in school of family members 3 to 5 years old was included
to capture early childhood educational learning in schools like nursery, kindergarten
and preparatory schools.
Of the estimated 46.1 million population 3 to 24 years old in 2016, around

two-thirds (65.3%) were enrolled or attending school during school year 2016-2017
(Table 11). School attendance among members 3 to 24 years old of families in the
Bottom 30% was 65.1 percent and 65.5 percent in the Top 70% families. By sex, of
the total females of this specified age group, 65.7 percent attended school while 65
percent among males.
Of the total number of persons aged 3 to 24 years who were attending school,
28.4 percent, were children aged 6 to 9 years. Those in age group 10 to 12 years
comprised 20.8 percent, and those aged 13 to 16 years, 25.5 percent.
Persons of school age in families belonging to the Top 70% were more likely
to pursue higher education than those in the Bottom 30% population. While 15.2
percent of the school age populations in the Top 70% families were attending college
or post graduate schools, the corresponding proportion in the Bottom 30%
population was 4.1 percent (Table 12). The proportion of those attending Grade I to
Grade VI was higher among the persons of school age in the Bottom 30% population
compared to Top 70% population with 54.3 percent and 40.6 percent, respectively.

school in school year 2016-2017 (Table 13).
The most common reasons for not attending school were marriage or family
matters (25.9%), employment or looking for work (25.8%), high cost of education or
financial concern (16.4%), and lack of personal interest (15.3%). These were also
the most common reasons reported by members of families who were not attending
school in the Bottom 30% population: marriage or family matters (31.1%), high cost
of education or financial concern (21.4%), lack of personal interest (20.7%), and
employment or looking for work (17.1%). Among the Top 70% population, reasons

D. ECONOMIC CHARACTERISTICS
D.1 Families with Working Members 18 Years Old and Over
In the 2016 APIS, a family member was considered employed if he or she had
worked or had a job or business at anytime during the reference semester, that is,
from January 1 to June 30, 2016. A work is defined as any economic activity that a
person does for pay, profit or without pay on family farm or enterprise, or an activity
done by a farm operator or member of his/her family on another’s farm on “exchange
labor” arrangement.
Of the total 23.8 million families with at least one member aged 18 years and
over, 92.4 percent or 22.0 million were employed during the reference semester
(Table 16). Percentage of Families with members aged 18 years and over who were
employed was higher in the Bottom 30% group of families (95.5%) compared to Top
70% families (91.2%).

D.2 Families with Working Children 5-17 Years Old
The Labor Code of the Philippines specifies that no child below 18 years old
shall be employed except when he/she works directly under the sole responsibility of
his parents/guardian and his/her employment does not in any way interfere with
his/her schooling. Although the survey results would not show whether the conditions
stated above are met, results would show the proportion or number of families with
children aged below 18 years who are working.
Of the 14.9 million families with members aged 5 to 17 years, 9.0 percent or
about 1.3 million families were reported to have working children (Table 17). Among
the Bottom 30% families with members aged 5 to 17 years, 14.2 percent had
working children while 5.8 percent had working children among the Top 70%
families.
