Ang Barangay Pangabuan ania mahimutang sa kasadpang bahin sa dakbayan sa Tangub. Malinawong kining maong dapit nga giugmad kanhi sa mga lumad nga Subano. Miadtong sayong bahin sa tuig 1930’s midagsang ang mga tawo nga nagikan sa kabay-an ug Luzon aron sa pagpanimpalad, tungod kay kining maong dapit gidungog man kaayo sa katabunok sa iyang kayutaan ug usab isdaanon kaayo ang iyang kadagatan.

Tungod sa pagdagsang sa mga tawo, nahimong centro sa negosyo kining maong barangay kay nahimo man kining tumoranan sa mga producto sa uma sama sa mais ug humay sanglit dinhi man nagdunggoan ang mga dagkong sakyanan sa Dagat nga gikan sa kabisayaan aron sa pagpngumpra sa mga abot sa uma.
