Definitions of Metro Davao

As years passed on, the definitions of Metro Davao had changed in recent years. Metro Davao, as of now, has taken on three identical geographical definitions, namely:

  • The metropolitan area encompasses Davao City and, not counting their provinces, its adjoining cities and towns of Tagum, Panabo, Digos, and Samal, Carmen, and Sta. Cruz.
