The well regarded Mount Pleasant area lies adjacent to the town centre with its High Street shops and M&S Simply Food store, and to the larger Sainsbury's store. The road has an interesting mixture of older and individual housing dating back to at least the Victorian era with also the Mid Hants Steam Railway nearby. The town centre has churches of several denominations, restaurants and inns, library, weekly and specialist open air market events, and a fitness studio. The Butts, an unspoilt green, a Waitrose store, local societies, Alton Sports Centre and 2 golf courses on the outskirts are additional attributes.
