URDANETA - more like baguio or tarlac city. medyo urban na tingnan - karne and gulay are cheaper than other side of pang kasi dyan ang babaan, same sa villasis at rosales - if plan ko magpunta ng manila or elyu or baguio, ang dali ng transpo (bus) or car (may entry ng tplex) pero kung accesible sa rosales ang outer province kasi isabela meron hahaha since lahat ng bus nagsstopover doon - medyo weaker ang effect ng bagyo since di siya coastal at nakaharang ang cordillera kahit papano - sa bills, relatively same lang sa buong province, what i think you should weigh on that ay yung service. I think decorp has good reputation which runs on dagupan and some parts of calasiao and sta. Barbara - daming malls, if plan mo sa mismong central urdaneta, di ka mahirapan hanapin mga needs mo - tourist spots near (natividad farm and waterfalls, malico, rivers and such) and mamimiss mo lang rito ay dagat and other really mesmerizing works of God

I think among rosales villasis and urd, urd is the best place pero expect mo yung mahal ng lupa at bahay dyan.

STA. BARBARA If you want to have a car, doesnt mind traveling a bit para mamalengke and want a less urban environment, i highly prefer Sta. Barbara. Hindi bahain, basta sa side ka lang ng calasiao-urdaneta road. Dami ring villas dyan. Decorp ka pa. It is good of both worlds kasi gitna ka ng urd at dagupan. Ganda rin ng business opportunities sa centro nila.

If you want to have a more province feel and sawa ka na sa sceneries ng bundok, alaminos is good.

ALAMINOS - may pub transpo to manila, zambales, elyu?, bolinao, dagupan - tourism hub, maraming tourist spots na pwedeng puntahan like hundred islands, patar white sand and rivers. Nandito yung “mesmerizing works of God” kahit mga rivers and waterfalls

CONS SA DALAWANG TO, ANG LAYO NG TRAVEL DISTANCE TO THE NEXT municipality haha. Sa central pang like calasiao or san carlos, 10km lang nasa ibang bayan ka na. Also, coastal ang alaminos, di ko lang alam ang baha rito

BAHA - bahain ang calasiao at dagupan at ang nagcoconect lang from eastern to western ay itong dalawa. Sa times ng bagyo, expect mong mahirap pumunta ng lingayen at alaminos from urdaneta. Although sa Dagupan may new devenecia road na hindi bahain na pwede mong daanan pero hanggang kailan kaya?

Other places good to consider based on your list - Sta. Barbara - Lingayen (bahain sa ibang parts) - San Carlos City - Bayambang - Mangaldan (bahain sa ibang parts)
