People likely experienced very weak shaking there. Many smaller towns and villages are located closer to the epicenter and might have experienced stronger shaking. In the capital of the  Philippines, Manila, 411 km (255 mi) away from the epicenter, the earthquake could not be felt.The following table shows some of the places that might have been affected (or not) by the shaking.DistancePlaceMax. shaking intensity(*)RegionCountry9 km (6 mi)E of epicenterAlibunan(pop: 2,800)IV: LightProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines11 km (7 mi)NE of epicenterDa-an Sur(pop: 2,090)IV: LightProvince of Capiz, Western VisayasPhilippines13 km (8 mi)S of epicenterJayubo(pop: 3,590)III: WeakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines16 km (10 mi)SE of epicenterLambunao(pop: 5,500)III: WeakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines22 km (13 mi)E of epicenterBingawan(pop: 3,660)III: WeakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines23 km (14 mi)NE of epicenterSan Nicolas(pop: 2,360)III: WeakProvince of Capiz, Western VisayasPhilippines27 km (17 mi)NW of epicenterManika(pop: 3,070)III: WeakProvince of Aklan, Western VisayasPhilippines28 km (17 mi)N of epicenterJaena(pop: 4,270)III: WeakProvince of Capiz, Western VisayasPhilippines28 km (18 mi)SE of epicenterJaniuay(pop: 12,900)III: WeakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines29 km (18 mi)E of epicenterPassi(pop: 42,800)III: WeakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines31 km (19 mi)NE of epicenterDumalag(pop: 3,040)III: WeakProvince of Capiz, Western VisayasPhilippines35 km (22 mi)N of epicenterLibacao(pop: 2,900)III: WeakProvince of Aklan, Western VisayasPhilippines36 km (22 mi)E of epicenterBungsuan(pop: 4,090)III: WeakProvince of Capiz, Western VisayasPhilippines37 km (23 mi)W of epicenterBugasong(pop: 2,830)III: WeakProvince of Antique, Western VisayasPhilippines38 km (23 mi)SE of epicenterPototan(pop: 10,200)III: WeakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines38 km (23 mi)NE of epicenterMambusao(pop: 5,870)III: WeakProvince of Capiz, Western VisayasPhilippines39 km (24 mi)S of epicenterAlimodian(pop: 7,300)III: WeakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines40 km (25 mi)W of epicenterTibiao(pop: 3,720)III: WeakProvince of Antique, Western VisayasPhilippines42 km (26 mi)NW of epicenterValderrama(pop: 4,280)III: WeakProvince of Antique, Western VisayasPhilippines42 km (26 mi)NE of epicenterDao(pop: 10,700)III: WeakProvince of Capiz, Western VisayasPhilippines42 km (26 mi)SE of epicenterSanta Barbara(pop: 8,630)III: WeakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines44 km (27 mi)N of epicenterAranas Sur(pop: 4,480)III: WeakProvince of Aklan, Western VisayasPhilippines47 km (29 mi)SE of epicenterBarotac Nuevo(pop: 11,600)III: WeakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines48 km (30 mi)N of epicenterBatan(pop: 4,500)III: WeakProvince of Aklan, Western VisayasPhilippines53 km (33 mi)E of epicenterBarotac Viejo(pop: 8,610)II: Very weakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines54 km (34 mi)S of epicenterOton(pop: 14,400)II: Very weakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines54 km (34 mi)S of epicenterTrapiche(pop: 11,500)II: Very weakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines55 km (34 mi)S of epicenterTigbauan(pop: 12,700)II: Very weakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines56 km (35 mi)S of epicenterIloilo City(pop: 387,700)II: Very weakProvince of Iloilo, Western VisayasPhilippines60 km (37 mi)N of epicenterKalibo (poblacion)(pop: 89,100)II: Very weakProvince of Aklan, Western VisayasPhilippines61 km (38 mi)NE of epicenterRoxas City(pop: 102,700)II: Very weakProvince of Capiz, Western VisayasPhilippines71 km (44 mi)NW of epicenterPandan(pop: 36,000)II: Very weakProvince of Antique, Western VisayasPhilippines73 km (45 mi)SE of epicenterEnrique B.

It takes normally up to a few hours until earthquake parameters are calculated with near-optimum precision.MagDepthTime GMT2025-09-3EpicenterAgency3.910 km6.2 mi(*)15:25:00016 km N 39° W of Lambunao (Iloilo)PHIVOLCS (Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology)Notes:(*) A depth given as 10 km often means that the the depth of the quake could be not determined with sufficient accuracy.Earthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 55 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 114 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 7 or higher: 0.05 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 20.8 years)Mag. 6 or higher: 0.1 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 9.6 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 0.62 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 1.6 years)Mag. 4 or higher: 11.6 quakes per yearMag. 3 or higher: 30.8 quakes per year (or 2.6 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 102 quakes per year (or 8.5 quakes per month)Mag. 1 or higher: 121 quakes per year (or 10.1 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a very high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 6 quakes above magnitude 7 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 20 to 25 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
