The area is primarily composed of housing estates, with a mix of detached, semi-detached, and terraced homes built from the mid-20th century onwards. It is bordered by major transport routes, including the A20 and the railway line, which connect it to Ashford's town centre and beyond. The local geography is generally flat, characteristic of the wider Ashford area.

Community facilities include the Singleton Environment Centre, which provides a focus for local ecology and education. The ward contains several schools and small local shops catering to daily needs. A notable feature is the presence of the Singleton Lake and surrounding green spaces, offering recreational walking paths.
