Also known as: Taguig, Lungsod ng Taguig
Taguig City is a highly urbanized city in Metro Manila (NCR), National Capital Region (NCR). Population 887K (PSA 2020 census), 38 barangays, land area 53.67 km².
Taguig's planning challenge changed dramatically after the Supreme Court ruling that transferred 10 Embo barangays from Makati to Taguig (Pembo, Comembo, Cembo, etc.). The expanded city now contains the country's premier financial district (BGC, Bonifacio Global City), one of the country's largest informal settlement clusters (Lower Bicutan, Western Bicutan), and the Laguna de Bay shoreline barangays facing chronic flooding (Tipas, Ligid-Tipas, Ibayo-Tipas). The CLUP must absorb the Embo districts while coordinating with the BGC master plan, the Lakeshore master-planned community, and the C5 + C6 expressway alignments. The Taguig riverwalk, Lakeshore reclamation, and Cavite-Tagaytay-Batangas Expressway interchanges all reshape land use simultaneously.

Taguig is the wealthiest LGU in the country by per-capita budget after the BGC tax base + Embo expansion. Nova Gov's compliance dashboards and BGC-style smart-district coordination directly fit the city's capacity to invest in next-generation operational infrastructure.
