Barangay Santa Rita is a small yet established community in western Lubao, with a modest population of almost 3,000 people. It features essential infrastructure—barangay hall, covered court, chapel, and health center. The barangay experienced steady growth until 2015 but has since undergone a population decline. The age profile skews young, and land zoning indicates mixed residential and agricultural use.
