Catarman is a first class municipality in the province of Northern Samar, Philippines. It is the capital, largest town, and center of arts, education, and commerce of the province. According to the 2007 census, it has a population of 81,067. It lies on the shoulder of Samar Island, and is approximately 700 km (435 mi) south of the Philippine capital, Manila. The town is in the process of renewing its image as a poor and underdeveloped town in the 1980s. Its cityhood was put to a halt in 2003 after the mayors of neighboring towns Mondragon and Bobon declined to be merged with the town for the proposed Catarman City conglomeration.
