The city of Mediaș is 26 km to the west, while the capital of the county, Sibiu, is 80 km to the southwest; both can be reached via national road DN14.

About 200,000 tuberoses are grown on 4 ha in the commune, in gardens and protected areas; there are some 40 tuberose growers, half cultivating the plant for commercial purposes, and the others as a hobby and for decorative purposes. Thousands of tourists attend the annual two-day Tuberoses Festival in Hoghilag.

At the 2011 census, 72% of inhabitants were Romanians, 23.6% Roma, 3.3% Hungarians, and 1% Germans (more specifically, Transylvanian Saxons).
