Muntinlupa City
Encyclopedia
The City of Muntinlupa (Filipino
: Lungsod ng Muntinlupa) is the southernmost city in Philippine National Capital Region. It is bordered on the north by Taguig City
; to the northwest by Parañaque City
; by Las Piñas City
to the west; to the southwest by the city of Bacoor, Cavite
; by the city of San Pedro, Laguna
; and by Laguna de Bay
to the east, the largest lake in the country. It is classified as a Highly Urbanized City with a population of more than 400,000 and is given the nickname "Emerald City of the Philippines" by the tourism establishment.
Muntinlupa was once notoriously known as the location of the national insular penitentiary
, the New Bilibid Prison
, where the country's most dangerous criminals were incarcerated. Consequently, Muntinlupa or "Munti" became synonym
ous with the national penitentiary although it has largely shaken-off this negative image to become one of the most progressive cities in the country.
Muntinlupa is also home to some of the best commercial establishments in the metropolis and is the location of Ayala Alabang Village
, one of the country's biggest and most expensive residential communities, where many of the wealthy and famous live.
Alabang, part of the second district of Muntinlupa, has undergone tremendous growth mainly due to a development boom in the late 1990s. The development of two large scale commercial real estate projects namely; the Filinvest Corporate City and Ayala Land's Madrigal Business Park, changed the landscape of Muntinlupa City from what was once vast fields of cow pasture in the late 1980s, into a supercity that houses new residential, business, industrial and commercial establishments. It was a transformation reminiscent of Makati City's development boom some 30 years prior.
Some of the country's premier shopping centers, including the Alabang Town Center
and the Festival Supermall
, the towering Insular Life Towers, the Asian Hospital and Medical Center
, and the Northgate Business District, which specializes in hosting information and technology industries, are important places of interest and landmarks of the city. Nightlife is still relatively staid compared to those of its neighbors, and younger residents often flock to other cities in Metro Manila, particularly Makati, Taguig, or Manila
, during the weekend to enjoy the night out.
This city has recently acquired the status "Most Competitive City" and the "Most Improved City" in the Philippines.
The Bureau of Corrections
has its headquarters in the New Bilibid Prison
Reservation in Muntinlupa City.
While Barangays are the administrative divisions of the city, and are legally part of the addresses of establishments and homes, many residents indicate their subdivision (village) instead of their Barangay. Listed below are the Barangays in each district and known subdivisions.
