Salmon River is primarily residential and rural, without a defined commercial centre of its own; residents typically travel to nearby Aldergrove or Murrayville for shopping and services.
The community is known as a "significantly developed" rural residential area, made up mostly of single-family homes — a mix of older and updated properties along with newer builds — generally sitting on half-acre or larger lots.
Salmon River residents access the regional highway network primarily via Highway 1 from 232 Street, with the community remaining car-dependent given its rural layout.
The Salmon River and its watershed are the community's defining natural feature, valued for salmon habitat and its role in the area's early history as a trade and transportation corridor.
