The district offers an information point focused on mining-related topics and maintains digital communication channels for residents and visitors. Services and information are designed to be easily accessible across all municipalities.
The territory is shaped by four urban-rural municipalities and one purely rural municipality, an unusual administrative mix that influences how services operate. This composition reflects the area's gradual transition from city influence to countryside.
