Lal-lo is now a 1st class municipality in the province of Cagayan, Philippines. According to the latest census, it has a population of 39,607 people in 7,443 households.

During the Spanish colonization times, Lal-lo was known as the city of Nueva Segovia and was the seat of the Nueva Segovia diocese before it was moved to Vigan, Ilocos Sur. There is a recent move in the congress to rename Lal-lo back to its former name and re-classify the municipality as a component city.

The current mayor of Lal-lo is Florante 'Anteng' Pascual, spouse of former Mayor Olivia Pascual, now a board member of the 1st district of Cagayan.

There is an ongoing project about building an airport in the Southern part of Lal-lo. It will be named as the Northern Cagayan International Airport which will be built to support the Cagayan Special Economic Zone in northern Cagayan and will also serve as a seaborne traffic through Port Irene.

The airport project will involve the construction of a 2,200-meter runway, with a width of 45 meters, following the standards of the International Civil Aviation Organization. Once completed, the planned international airport can accommodate large aircraft such as the Airbus A319-100 and Boeing regional jets of comparable size.
