Between 2010 and 2015, its population grew at 2.28 percent, faster

the country.
The City of San Jose Del Monte had remained to have the largest
population while the Municipality of Pandi recorded the highest
percent increase in population from 2010 to 2015 with almost 34
percent. This may be attributed to the relocation sites established in
the area. In addition, municipalities of Marilao and Santa Maria also
have high percent increase in population from 2010-2015 with 19.58

THE ENVIRONMENT
Bulacan has many river systems. One particular system that plays
an important role in the physical configuration and socio-economic
activities of the province is the Angat River which practically divides
the province in half. In the northern portion of the province are two
minor river systems and these are San Miguel and Maasim Rivers.
San Miguel River drains mostly the municipality of San Miguel and
the northern and northeastern most portion of the province. Maasim
River on the other hand, drains not only the southern part of San
Miguel but also portions of the municipality of San Rafael. Down
south of Bulacan are found other minor river systems that provide
special functions to affected municipalities. These river systems
include Santa Maria, Marilao, Meycauayan, Bocaue, Balagtas, and
Guiguinto River.
