About

Strabane West ward encompasses a primarily residential area on the western side of the town centre, featuring a mix of housing estates and local commercial streets. The layout is defined by its proximity to the River Mourne, which forms a natural boundary. Local services and community facilities are concentrated along the Melmount Road and adjacent areas, serving the immediate neighbourhood population.

The ward is directly linked to the town centre via the historic Melvin Bridge, a key crossing point over the river. The area includes several playing fields and green spaces that provide recreational space. Residential patterns here are typical of a settled urban community, with development shaped by the river's course and the main transport routes leading into Strabane.
