Fields ave / Perimeter is actually Balibago subdivision of Pampanga.

I know the difference .. but .. it is comical sometimes trying to explain what is where, especially when the PH people like to make Cities ..

Like in Baguio City, Benquet City .. practically they are on top of each other but do not dare to mix them up ..

And, ah .. some are proud to be mentioned to be from Pampanga, but you dare not insult them asking if Pampanga=Angeles ? Though they may be living just up Malabanias .. MALABANIAS, not ANGELES, OK ??? even though for foreigners they are almost one and the same ..

For me DMIA=Clark, and Angeles = All around there .. Pampanga = all of the previous .. including those that GMA owns and those she don't .. LOL

It is Fun in the Philippines ..
