Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Baguio city accepting of differences?

Answer this Question

When we asked people about diversity in Baguio city and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...

"Yes, Baguio City in the Philippines is known for its cultural diversity. It is a melting pot of different cultures and ethnicities, including the indigenous Ibaloi and Kankanaey people, as well as a mix of Tagalog, Ilocano, Kapampangan, Pangasinense, and other ethnic groups from different parts of the country. There is also a growing number of foreign residents, adding to the city's multicultural character. In terms of acceptance of differences, Baguio City is generally considered to be a tolerant and inclusive city. The city's diverse cultural background has fostered an environment of acceptance and respect for different cultures, traditions, and beliefs. The city is also known for its progressive views on gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights. For instance, it was one of the first cities in the Philippines to pass an anti-discrimination ordinance protecting the rights of the LGBTQ+ community. However, like any other place, individual experiences may vary," said a member in Baguio city, Philippines.
