Aurora (Asawa)

Aurora (Asawa) refers to the Municipality of Aurora located in the province of Isabela, Philippines. "Asawa," meaning "wife" or "spouse" in several Philippine languages, is an additional element included in the name for local distinction and identity, differentiating it from Aurora province in Central Luzon. Officially, however, the municipality's name is simply Aurora, Isabela. The inclusion of "(Asawa)" is more colloquial and serves as a locational identifier.

The Municipality of Aurora is an agricultural area in southern Isabela. Its economy is primarily based on rice farming and other agricultural products. It is accessible via major roadways and is a growing community within Isabela province. Local governance is managed by the Municipal Local Government Unit (MLGU) of Aurora, Isabela.

The addition of "(Asawa)" in common usage helps to prevent confusion in postal addresses and general conversation when referencing Aurora, Isabela, as opposed to Aurora province. This informal identifier is well-understood within the province and surrounding regions.
