Napindan

Napindan is a barangay (village) in the city of Taguig, Metro Manila, Philippines. It is situated on the eastern side of Taguig, bordered by Laguna de Bay. Historically a rural area, Napindan has experienced increased urbanization in recent years due to its proximity to Metro Manila's central business districts and the development of infrastructure projects in the region.

Napindan is known for its location at the mouth of the Pasig River where it empties into Laguna de Bay. This geographical feature has historically influenced the barangay's economy and culture, with fishing and related activities playing a significant role in the livelihoods of its residents. Water quality in this area has been a concern, with efforts aimed at mitigating pollution and improving the health of the Pasig River and Laguna de Bay.

The population of Napindan is composed of a mix of long-time residents and more recent migrants drawn to the area by employment opportunities and relatively affordable housing compared to other parts of Metro Manila. The barangay is administered by an elected barangay council, responsible for local governance and the delivery of basic services to its constituents.
