Neath Port Talbot BCU extends from the Amman Valley to the head of the Neath Valley, and Crymlyn Burrows on the shore of Swansea Bay. Its three sectors correspond with the main urban centres, Neath, Port Talbot and Pontardawe. The historical make up of the area - the mix of rural and urban communities and the increase in tourism in the valley area - gives each area distinct identities, cultures and policing needs.
The BCU is home to a number of large manufacturing plants including Corus Steelworks located in Port Talbot. There are also several popular tourist attractions such as Margam Park and Aberavon Beach. As well as the normal policing issues experienced by other policing divisions, G BCU also faces the additional challenge of responding to incidents at these sites.
