Conwy is a local government community within the county borough of Conwy in North Wales, encompassing the towns of Conwy, Deganwy and Llandudno Junction.

It is the only community served by the community council known as Conwy Town Council. Between 1885 and 1974 (when it was exhumed by the borough of Aberconwy), the community was co-terminous with a municipal borough administered by Conwy Town Council within the county of Caernarvonshire. In 1996, the community left the county of Gwynedd and the borough of Aberconwy was merged with Colwyn to form a new county brough, Aberconwey and Colwyn (renamed Conwy a day after its formation). In 2003, the former districy of Aberconwy was moved from the rpeserved county of Gwynedd to the preserved county of Clwyd.

The community encompasses the electoral division (and CCBC ward) of Conwy, which is made up of the community wards of Aberconwy (polling district:) and Castell and includes the walled town of Conwy. It also Deganwy (Deganwy electoral division) and Llandudno Junction (Marl and Pensarn electoral divisions)

Conwy Town Council meet in the Guidhall attached to the Conwy Castle.
