Alubijid (locally [ɐlʊˈbihɪd]), officially the Municipality of Alubijid (Cebuano: Lungsod sa Alubijid; Tagalog: Bayan ng Alubijid), is a 4th class municipality in the province of Misamis Oriental, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 32,163 people.[3]

Etymology

According to oral tradition, the town's name is derived from the local term for the hog plum tree (Spondias pinnata)—alubijid or alubihod. The trees grew along the town's coast and were used as landmarks by traders. Historical variations of the spelling include: Alubigid, Alubuhid, Alubijig, and Alubid.[5]

History

Alubijid, along with El Salvador, was part of Cagayan de Misamis (present-day Cagayan de Oro) when the two entities petitioned to become municipalities in 1933. Alubijid became a separate town in 1940, and El Salvador became one 9 years later.
