The city has almost 10,000 inhabitants and is located in the Yenice Irmağı river valley between forested hills on the D-030 road link from Karabük to Zonguldak on the Black Sea. It is divided into ten mahalle (districts). Most of the houses are lined up on both sides of the main street, which is generously divided by a green strip. A four-lane northern bypass road was almost completed at the end of 2011.
