9.6 km north of Iloilo City is the municipality of Pavia, now the Regional Agro-Industrial Center (RAIC) for Western Visayas.

 

Pavia occupies the central portion of Iloilo. Its strategic location and nearness to Iloilo City, good road network, available communications system and in-place support facilities have made it the ideal investment venue for industrialists.

 

With support facilities already in place, Pavia is also a preferred residential center. Its growth continues in a master planned community soon to rise in the heart of town.
