    Business establishments
    Infrastructures such as public markets and commercial places lack the barangay. Commercial businesses are
    mostly rented from private owners. Talipapa or commercial areas are not concentrated in one place. Commercial
    areas in the barangay are mostly found near the area of transportation or near school. Currently almost each sitio
    has its own talipapa or local commercial area.

    Transportatio
    Bagong Silangan is serviced by its lone jeepney line that has a route from Bagong Silangan proper to Ever Gotesco
    and Sandiganbayan. Numerous Tricycle lines are also present in the Baranggay such as Sitio Veterans route and
    Barangay Proper Route. Beside the usual route from Batasan, one way of accessing the Barangay is through San
    Mateo, Rizal. The Route is linked by Bagong Silangan-San Mateo foot bridge in Purok Uno.

    Population
    As of 2016, the estimated population of the barangay has reached 132,501. It is one of the most densely populated
    barangays in the 2nd district of Quezon City. The casualties brought by the tropical storm Ondoy have caused
    several families to relocate in Batangas and Laguna, thus decreasing the population especially in flood-affected
    areas.[5]

    Bagong Silangan is a growing barangay in Quezon City composed of people who came from different parts of the
    country. Tagalog is the primary language being spoken. Also numerous in the area are minority of Ilocano, Bisaya,
    Kapampangan, and Pangasinan speakers.

    Bagong Silangan as an originally considered part of Rizal province shares its culture with the once homogenous
    agricultural culture of the people from San Mateo. However, due to saturation of numerous cultures Bagong
    Silangan's cultural identity is evolved currently as more of heterogeneous which are mixed beliefs that are still
    expounding and evolving. [6]

    With the Predominantly Catholic Population Bagong Silangan Hosts Cultural events that are heavily themed by their
    religion such as Fiestas which are celebrated every May to give homage to their patron San Isidro Labrador.
    Additionally minority religions such as INC, Protestants, Agnostics and others have their own celebration based on
    their discretion. [6]

    The barangay is also the home to informal settlers who occupy not only vast tracts of public and private lands but
    also riverbanks, creeksides, aqueducts and transmission lines.[7]
