Asunción Ocotlán is a town and municipality in Oaxaca in south-western Mexico.

It is part of the Ocotlán District in the south of the Valles Centrales Region.

Asunción Ocotlán's culture is shaped by celebrations, traditions and art.

As in many small towns or villages, a wedding party tradition is that the couple and their families dance with the presents they have received.

The media channels are local although people can pay to get SKY (a Mexican cable TV company).
