Although Cabanatuan, a first-class component city with 89 barangays and a population of 302,231 based on the 2015 Census, is not the capital city of Nueva Ecija (that distinction was transferred to Palayan City in 1965). However, it remains as the economic, financial, and cultural heart of the province. It still hosts the provincial capitol building, is considered the gateway to Northern Luzon, and is the center of the province’s rice industry.
As Central Luzon’s fifth largest city in terms of population, Cabanatuan has a huge catchment area to serve. As such, it is home to several large shopping malls, most notably NE Mall, NE Pacific Mall, Robinsons Townville Cabanatuan, SM Megacenter Cabanatuan, Waltermart Cabanatuan, and SM City Cabanatuan. Aside from these, other shopping and lifestyle centers include S&R Membership Shopping, Starmall, and a second Robinsons Mall. All these retail developments show that real estate developers are bullish about the city’s economic and business potential. Coupled with a population that is growing at a rate of 1.98 percent per year, residential and other housing developments are another major driver of the city’s growth.
