Batangas City, is a 1st class component city in the province of Batangas, in the Philippines. According to the 2015 census, it has a population of 329,874 people.

Batangas City is classified as one of the fastest urbanizing cities of the Philippines, and is known as the "Industrial Port City of CALABARZON". It is home to the Batangas International Port, one of the busiest passenger and container terminals in the Philippines. It also hosts one of the largest oil refineries in the country, three natural gas power plants, and several other major industries. In addition, the city also serves as the educational, industrial and the transportation center of the province.

With the expansion of the Port of Batangas City, the operation of different heavy industries and the construction of Phase II of the Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR Tollway) project and new diversion roads, Batangas City has seen a gradual shift from an agricultural economy to an industrial economy.

The northwest of the city hosts different commercial establishments while the lowland areas surrounding Batangas Bay hosts the heavy industries of the city. However, despite its gradual shift in becoming a major commercial/industrial hub for CALABARZON, it still shares rural landscapes that is still preserved in the north part of the city. The Poblacion area is the major retail and commercial center of the city. It is filled with banks, restaurants, and local businesses.

Being a major port city, Batangas City has seen an increase in migrants from nearby provinces, islands, and even nation states such as China, India, Indonesia and Malaysia.

Batangas City, then a town at that time, was served by a branch line of the Philippine National Railways until its closure. Today, none of the line exists today as it was removed due to the city's rapid development. There are plans on reviving the old line, with a new alignment.
