It serves a resident population of 13,058 (2025) across a compact 0.93 km² area, providing the standard catalog of local public services required by Spanish law: urban planning, local taxation, civil registry, social services, public works, waste management, road maintenance, and primary education coordination. The current administration is led by Mayor Josep Martínez Valencia and the municipal government has tax identification NIF P0831200A.

The municipality operates a digital governance stack comprising the Seu Electrònica (electronic headquarters) for citizen procedures and Canal Plens for public broadcasting of council sessions, alongside integration with the AMB (Àrea Metropolitana de Barcelona) digital business platform.

The entity's revenue model is that of a Spanish municipal government: combined municipal taxes (IBI, IVTM, IAE), user fees, and intergovernmental transfers from the Generalitat de Catalunya, the AMB, and the central government. Public procurement is conducted through the municipal profile, with discrete contracts (e.g., €9,856.56 to Moix Serveis for plenary technical support) published for transparency. There is no commercial product, pricing model, or external customer base.
