Camatagan is one of the fifteen barangays of Sabangan municipality in Mountain Province created
during the President Ferdinand Edralin Marcos governance. The barangay was then a sitio of Barrio Pingad.
This barangay is located along the Halsema highway or so called "Baguio
Bontoc road". According to the National Statistics Census of
Population 2007, the barangay has 843 population. Farming is the
main source of livelihood for most of family who lives here. Common agricultural products of this community are rice, cabbage, carrots, potatoes,
sweet potatoes and etc. Farming alone can not sustain the community so most of
the families relies on its working force to compensate income. Families with
relatives working abroad or nearby towns and cities send needed resources for additional supplement.
Working force migrates to near by towns like Bontoc or to cities like Manila or
Baguio. Baguio is the favorite destination because of its proximity and
accessibility with the city. The city also serves as the educational center for
students coming from this barangay to finish higher education.
