Bamber Bridge West sits on the western side of the main railway line and the River Darwen, forming a primarily residential part of the town. The area is characterised by a mix of post-war housing estates and some older terraced streets, with local shopping concentrated along Station Road and Brownedge Road for everyday needs.

A notable local landmark is the former Bamber Bridge railway station building, which now serves as a private residence, reflecting the area's historical connection to the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway. The land adjacent to the river and canal, including Cuerden Valley Park, provides accessible green space on the western fringes.
