During the Outbreak of the Second World War, the Japanese Imperial forces did not enter and occupy the town municipalities at Santa Rosa, Nueva Ecija during the Japanese Occupation (1942-1944) through the Allied Liberation (1944-1945).
The founded of the local military establishment of the general headquarters and camp bases of the Philippine Commonwealth Army was found active on 1942 to 1946 and the 2nd Infantry Regiment of the Philippine Constabulary was found active again on 1944 to 1946 and stationed in the town municipality of Santa Rosa, Nueva Ecija.
Pursuant to the Local government in the Philippines, the political seat of the municipal government is located at the Municipal Town Hall. In the History of the Philippines (1521–1898), the Gobernadorcillo was the Chief Executive who holds office in the Presidencia. During the American rule (1898–1946) (History of the Philippines (1898-1946)), the elected Mayor and local officials, including the appointed ones, held office at the Municipal Town Hall. The legislative and executive departments perform their functions in the Sangguniang Bayan (Session Hall) and Municipal Trial Court, respectively, and are located in the Town Hall.
Santa Rosa's incumbent Mayor is Eliseo "Boyet" Angeles and Vice Mayor is Irene S. Bernardo.
Santa Rosa is politically subdivided into 33 barangays.
Santa Rosa primarily depends on rice cultivation, vegetable production, commercial fishery, and tricycle sidecar fabrication. Just recently, the town started realizing its development potential.
The town's strategic location at the crossroads of two national highways: the Maharlika Highway and the Tarlac-Santa Rosa-Fort Magsaysay Road is accelerating its commercial and industrial development. It is also inevitably set to benefit from the spillover of Cabanatuan's built-up area.
