Horsham's topography is flat, approximately 128 metres (420 ft) above sea level.
The central business district (CBD) is laid out in a grid plan south of the train line and is characterised by wide streets and several roundabouts.
 Firebrace Street, running north–south through the middle of the CBD is one of Horham's original "thoroughfares" (first surveyed in 1849) and is named after a soldier from the British Army, Major William Firebrace.
Residential areas extend north of the train line, west towards Natimuk and south-west towards Haven and south-east across Burnt Creek.
A light industrial area is located south of the Wimmera River.

Due to the flat topography and floodplain clay, there are very few multi-story buildings.
The five most prominent buildings in the city are the State Government Offices on McLauchlin Street, the T&G clocktower on Firebrace Street, St John Anglican church on the Western Highway, the Horsham Cinema and Horsham Town Hall, both on Pynsent Street.
