About San Isidro

Named after a patron saint, this barangay has a heritage character rooted in the Catholic parish system that organized early Philippine settlements. The local chapel remains its most visible landmark. Flood risk in this part of Mahayag is moderate — buyers should verify the specific lot's drainage conditions.

Title verification at the local Registry of Deeds is an essential pre-purchase step.
