Local shopping parades and primary schools provide everyday services, while community facilities include a leisure centre and small parks. Bus services run through the area, linking to the town centre and neighbouring settlements; journeys by road and rail connect residents to larger towns along the North Wales coast.

Community life focuses on local clubs, schools and volunteer groups that use community halls and sports pitches.
