Anahtar Kelimeler:Urban Amenities,Indigenous People,Migration,Employment,Total Household Income

Özet: Indigenous people (IPs) are the descendants of the inhabitants of a country or region. This study examines whether an indigenous group, specifically an Aeta community in Pampanga, undergoes Urbanization or not. Migration has been a part of the Aeta's history since the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo, which forced them to move out from their original lands. Despite the Urbanization of the community, their culture and way of living remained the same and didn't change. The Aetas pass it on to their next generation, and due to this, they suffer from discrimination because of their way of living.  To gather the needed data, the researchers reviewed various literature and studies to have an idea of how to construct the survey question based on LSMS and DHS. The study was conducted in Barangay Sapang Uwak, Sitio Pidpid, Porac, Pampanga, a home of an Aeta community. By looking at the field site, it shows that development and accessibility of urban amenities are difficult for them since it was evident to the researchers that education and some necessities are insufficient.
