San Jose del Monte City is a third class component city! and Malolos, according to wikipedia, is a fourth class component city... This is incredible... unbelievable.. I have been to both cities.. Malolos is a bustling and progressive city while San Jose del Monte is a poor, backward, and undeveloped place in Bulacan. SJDM doesnt even deserve to become a city! Sta. Maria, Bocaue, Baliaug, Marilao, and Meycauayan are more progressive and looks more like a city than SJDM —Preceding unsigned comment added by Angeles624 (talk • contribs)

I know, I know, I've been there a couple of times myself and---more importantly---I live in Meycauayan. However, Meycauayan has a different story. The citizens of Meycauayan voted overwhelmingly against cityhood even though it exceeds the standards set by the Local Government Code (long story, but the gist of it is that it's the @!*&@! mayor who wants it...mainly because he wants his hands on the potentially huge internal revenue allotment (IRA) that Meycauayan will get should it become a city).

Malolos, though, long deserved to be a city for historical reasons even though the most part of it is as rural as SJDM. People often think that Malolos is as progressive as Meycauayan, Marilao, Sta. Maria, Baliuag and Bocaue, but the truth is most of it is agrarian land; one of its main industries is fisheries.--- Tito Pao 21:35, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] subdivision lists

sana meron din kau listings of subdivisions which lies on your city. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.105.209.235 (talk • contribs)

We'd love to; however, Wikipedia is not a directory, so you won't be able to find this information here. And even if someone includes it here, it may be deleted by other editors (including me)---unless, of course, one of those subdivisions become notable in themselves (Martha's Vineyard or Beverly Hills in the US would be good examples of these). Thanks! --- Tito Pao 07:45, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
