For governance purposes it is divided between the town of Hautes-Terres and the regional municipality of Tracadie,^[3] both of which are members of the Acadian Peninsula Regional Service Commission.^[4]

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, the Hautes-Terres portion was divided between the village of Saint-Isidore^[5] and the local service district of the parish of Saint-Isidore^{[lower-alpha 1]}, which further included the special service area of Bois-Blanc - Hacheyville - Duguayville.^[6]

The parish's name may have come from Saint Isidore, Patron Saint of farmers.^[7]

Saint-Isidore was erected in 1881 from Inkerman and Saumarez Parishes.^[8]
