Ballymun Shopping Centre was the main source for shopping throughout much of Ballymun's first 40 years.
However, due to regeneration, the centre has slowly emptied - in 2014 the anchor store, a Tesco supermarket, closed and was not replaced.
As of 2017, the shopping centre still stands but only a handful of units remain occupied.

On the site of a former large underpass roundabout, a brand new civic complex was built, including The Axis, with the local health centre and Garda station also moved here, although their defunct buildings remain across the road.
City Council offices are here, although the offices handling some services, such as driver licensing and motor taxation, closed.

Two hotels, Travelodge and Metro are located in this area, as well as a city-owned gym and leisure centre (the old Ballymun swimming pool was demolished in 2016 after being defunct for a number of years).
 A Bank of Ireland branch was demolished in 2017 and replaced by an AIB branch near the health centre.

A number of green spaces, parks and playgrounds have been built around the district.

The Republic of Ireland's only IKEA store is located fairly near.

There is a church in the old village centre.

There are a number of schools in each sub-district, including a Gaelscoil (Irish-speaking) primary school.
Trinity Comprehensive is the only secondary school; this was formerly known as Ballymun Comprehensive.
