Mangilao is a village on the eastern shore of the United States territory of Guam. The village's population has increased slightly following the island's 2000 census.[2]

In the far northeastern part of Mangilao's municipal boundary is a community known as Latte Heights, which is much closer to central Dededo than the main village of Mangilao.
