A small but vibrant town set within the Boyne Valley, Athboy with its great sense of community, boasts a wealth of shopping outlets, facilities, clubs and amenities to cater for its resident population. These include both primary and post-primary schools, as well as Athboy Childcare Centre (3 months to 12 years) along with an afterschool club; supermarkets; pharmacies; credit union; various unique hostelries; tennis and basketball courts; a public library; and GAA, rugby and soccer clubs together with an array of community and recreational groups. Local hospitality can be enjoyed at The Darnley Lodge Hotel, a popular spot for dining and events. The Fair Green, encompassing six-and-a-half acres and where locals traded livestock for centuries, now stands transformed into a beautiful parkland type amenity with pathways and public benches. Set just beyond the town, Father Murphy Athletics Club has been in operation since 1970 and currently supports a number of tracks that facilitate several disciplines.

The local Gaeltacht area of Rathcairn is located some 5km distant from Athboy. There, there is a full-day creche service together with both primary and secondary schools, all teaching through the medium of the Irish language, together with a shop, pub, village hall and church.

Navan, the county town of Meath, is located some 18km to the east of Athboy, and both the heritage towns of Trim and Kells lie some 12km equidistant, to the southeast and north respectively. Between them, they provide for a wider array of facilities and services. The M3 (Junction 9 / Navan North / N51) is located some 13km to the east, Dublin`s M50 (Junction 6 / Blanchardstown / M3) is situated some 48km to the southeast and Dublin City Centre is located some 57km to the southeast too.

Dublin lies some 55km distant to the southeast. Conveniently, the M50 (Junction 6) and the Blanchardstown Centre, can be reached after a 38-minute drive or so primarily along the M3. Commuters can also exploit an economical route via the upgraded R154 (Dublin (Blackbull)/Athboy Road) and an untolled portion of the M3 motorway.

There is lots to do in or about Athboy including annual festivals namely, The Blue Jean Country Queen Festival, held over each June bank holiday weekend, and the Púca Festival, an immersive Halloween festival, with the local Hill of Ward featuring heavily as a setting. Tlachtga, now known as the Hill of Ward, is an important prehistoric site near the town having views towards the other important hills of Meath, including Tara, Loughcrew and the Hill of Lloyd, all too worthy of a visit. The nearby Girley Bog Walk is ideal for a simple trek, with or without dogs. In nearby Trim, King John`s Castle, a most majestic sight, is the largest existing Norman Castle in Europe. There one can enjoy the Slí na Sláinte walking trail which starts at the Castle on the Boyne, routes along the Porchfields passing by the monuments at Newtown, returning along the Dublin Road and capturing magnificent sights and views of other landmarks along the way. In the opposite direction towards Westmeath, undiscovered by many, is Mullaghmeen Forest, Europe`s largest planted Beech forest, and in that general direction too, there is the picturesque village of Fore, with its magical Abbey and associated seven wonders, together with its nearby addition, Fore Distillery, which turns out rum and poitín. Other high-profile attractions include Slane Castle; Brú na Bóinne including Newgrange; Slieve Na Calliagh (Meath`s highest point at 276 meters); Bective Abbey; Battle of the Boyne visitor centre; seaside at Bettystown; horse racing at Navan, Bellewstown and Fairyhouse; golf at Headfort (including a championship course), Royal Tara and at Killeen Castle amongst other great courses; and hunting with the Meath`s together with various water and fishing-based activities on the Boyne and Blackwater Rivers. The Yellow Ford and Stonyford Rivers along with several small nearby lakes offer more local fishing and water-based options. The Summer mecca that is Lough Lene is not too far either and neither is the Royal Canal at the Hill of Down. The latter has an associated Greenway that spans some 130km, starts in Maynooth and finishes up in Clondra, Co Longford, transversing both Meath and Westmeath.
