Well written

Lead section needs expanding to be in compliance with WP:LEAD.
"During the Philippine Revolution against Spain in 1896, Bacoor is one of the first towns in Cavite to rise up." Should be changed to "During the Philippine Revolution against Spain in 1896, Bacoor is one of the first towns in Cavite to be founded."
The list in the subsection "Tourism" should be rewritten in prose format. Same for the list in the "Education" section.

Referencing

The last couple sentences of the subsection "Cityhood" are unreferenced.
"Zapote Bridge's special place in Philippine history is depicted today in Bacoor's city seal." is unreferenced.
The subsections "Physical" and "Climate" of the section "Geography" are unreferenced.
The subsection "Religion" of section "Demographics" is unreferenced.
"the city government is to be composed of a mayor (alkalde), a vice-mayor (bise alkalde) and members (kagawad) of the legislative branch Sangguniang Panlungsod alongside a secretary to the said legislature, all of which are elected to a three-year term and are eligible to run for three consecutive terms." is unreferenced.
The charts in the "Local government" section are unreferenced.
The first paragraph of the "Commerce" subsection is unreferenced.
The subsection "Land use" is unreferenced.
The subsection "Tourism" is unreferenced.
The subsection "Infrastructure" is unreferenced.
The section "Notable People" is unreferenced. Every entry needs a reference.
The section "Sister cities" is unreferenced.

Broadness

The section "Education" needs expanding to tell more about the schools, not just a list of them.

NPOV

Stability

I have failed this GA, as it has been around seven days since I reviewed it. --AmaryllisGardener ^talk 15:26, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
