Abstract: RODRIGUEZ, JOANA MARIE M. Characteristics of Informal Settlers in Selected Barangays of Indang, Cavite. Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Business Management. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2014. Adviser: Dr. Nelia C. Cresino. The study was conducted to describe the socio-demographic characteristics of informal settlers in selected barangays of Indang, Cavite, namely; Alulod, Banaba Cerca, Buna Cerca, Buna Lejos I, Carasuchi, Daine 1, Lumampong Halayhay, Tambo M. Kulit, Kayquit 1, and Kayquit 3; describe the housing environment of informal settlers; determine the reasons for migrating in Indang, Cavite; and identify the problems encountered by the informal settlers in their community in Indang, Cavite. The secondary data relating to slums and informal settlements were taken from articles and files compiled by government and non-governmental organizations. The characteristics of informal settlers in Indang, Cavite were presented using means, frequencies, percentages, and ranks. In Cavite, particularly in Indang, informal settlers normally rent a small lot with minimal cost where they built houses of their own. These houses were usually found in residential and farm areas. They were made of non-permanent materials like bamboo stripes, woods, plywood, sawaili, plastic, and coconut leaf roofs. Most of the informal settlers came from Region 4A and Region 5. They were usually in the farm areas. Most of the lots that they occupied were from private individuals. Most of them were farm laborers which also is their main source of income. The monthly income of informal settlers ranged from P1,100 - P24,000 with an average of P6,291. Informal settlers from Region 4A and Region 5 migrated in Indang because of work opportunities, low rental fees for the land they occupy, and affordable lifestyle, others were influenced by family, friends, and relatives, were married to a resident, and were victims of natural disasters. The problems encountered by the informal settlers in Indang, Cavite were the following: difficulty in getting a job, muddy flooring, limited supply of potable water, distance of job from place of residence, and the safety and security of the area. Informal settlers moved to the different parts of the Philippines because they were not satisfied with their community and because they were attracted by the way of living of other communities.
