The municipality includes towns San Pedro Apatlaco, Anenecuilco, and Tenextepango, which are all larger than Ciudad Ayala. The city was previously known as San Francisco Mapachtlan but was renamed in 1868 to honor Francisco Ayala (1760–1812), who was the first leader in the modern state of Morelos to join the Cry of Dolores in 1810.
The town of Anenecuilco, birthplace of Emiliano Zapata, is within this municipality; as is the Hacienda de San Juan, near the town of Chinameca, where he was betrayed and assassinated. Ayala itself is best known for giving the name to Emiliano Zapata's manifesto: the Plan of Ayala.
