The railway now known as the Cambrian Line runs through the Community, following the river Severn. The former Abermule railway station is now closed.

As at 2005, the community was divided for electoral purposes into two wards: Abermule in the west and Llandyssil in the east; each ward elected five community councillors. By 2017, there were seven council seats for Abermule, which had expanded in population, and four for Llandyssil, although in both wards fewer councillors than that were nominated.
