Based on the results, the researchers concluded that the dormitomy owners are highly prepared than that of the dormitory occupants who were just moderately prepared. It supports and reveals the idea that there is no marked of significant relationship between the demographic profile and the level of disaster preparedness of the residential occupants because the demographic profile does not affect the level of preparedness of the respondents on the disaster and there is no significant difference between the level of disaster preparedness of the dormitory owner and the dormitory occupants.
