In November 2013, Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) gave devastated impacts on both housing and people’s lives in the middle part of Philippines. The purpose of this paper is first to understand characteristics of such disaster impacts and the geographical distributions, and second to analyze relationships between impacts and vulnerabilities at the municipality level in a quantitative way. Our major finding is that social vulnerability, in particular poverty plays an important role in determining both housing damage and population suffering. Houses in highly urbanized and deprived municipalities were more likely to be destroyed possibly due to concentrations of poor households on high risk areas. Also, elderly, less educated and poor people were more vulnerable.
