| Unlike most Mindanao provinces, Cotabato del Sur's settlements are not coastal, but are in the central lowland along road and river routes. The province is home to the B'laan and Maguindanao peoples. |
| Resettlement projects for landless people in the 1940s led to the formation of General Santos City on the coast. |
