It contains local amenities such as schools, shops, and community facilities serving its residents.

The ward extends from the urban centre towards more elevated, green spaces with views over the Menai Strait. A notable feature is the presence of the ancient hillfort of Pen-y-Dinas, a scheduled monument located on a wooded hill within its boundaries.
