Langauges and Dialects

The first settlers in Koronadal were the Ilonggos.

Ilonggos have formed extended families in the town, thus the Ilonggos dominate the populace. As a dominant tribe, their dialect known as Hiligaynon is the most spoken. The next dominant dialects are Cebuano and Ilocano. (Source: CDP 2000-2009. City of Koronadal)
