In Philippines, cities and municipalities are subdivided into areas called barangays. For example, our house is located in the town of Sibulan - in Brgy. Magatas.
According to Wikipedia, there are 42,045 barangays in the country. As far as I know, each Barangay has a barangay Hall.
I would have thought that the barangay hall would actually be located within the particular barangay it represents. I know of at least one case where that isn't so.
As can be seen in these photos, the barangay halls for Brgy. Taclobo and Brgy.Poblacion 7 in Dumaguete are next door to one another. According to Google Maps, both are located within Brgy.Poblacion 7.
