Kentish Town South is a residential ward centred around Kentish Town Road, which serves as its main commercial artery. The area contains a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, alongside several postwar housing estates. Its southern boundary is formed by the Regent's Canal, providing a distinct linear green space. Transport links are a key feature, with the Thameslink railway and Northern Line tube services operating from Kentish Town station.

The ward includes the Castlehaven open space and is home to the historic Kentish Town Baths, a listed building now functioning as a community leisure centre. Development is primarily residential, with local businesses focused on daily needs along the high street. The area has a defined community character, shaped by its established housing stock and the canal's presence as a quiet thoroughfare away from the main road.
