Sitio Panamucan is located at barangay San Jose, and is roughly located 6 kilometers away from the highway. Reaching Panamucan one must pass through rugged and muddy terrain, which makes it treacherous and nearly impassable.
Panamucan has very limited town utilities. Surrounded by fields, they mostly grow their own food and gain economy by selling to the nearest market situated at the city proper kilometers away. Houses, mostly made of wood and concrete, compose the small village. A single church stands at the center with another one beyond the river. The people composing the community itself live a simple farm life and but are willing to be open to the busy city life.
None have ever experienced a flood as devastating as May 25, their river used to flow but with no danger. This opened the minds of everyone who has heard about it to start questioning their lives about the environment. Panamucan was unfortunate enough to be the example of Mother Natures wrath.
