The town has a main population centre and five smaller villages within its administrative perimeter:
Traditional local agriculture was based on the produce of the numerous olive, almond and carob trees of the area, as well as fruit and vegetable crops. The furniture, construction and service sectors are also of relative importance.[citation needed]
In recent years the quarrying of marble, from the Serra de Godall hills has become a major income earner for the town. Quarried since ancient times, the stone of Ulldecona has been used in the construction of important public works in Spain, such as the Pedrera in Barcelona, the Town Hall in Zaragoza and the airport of Madrid. Presently it is also exported to different countries, such as the US (Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles), France, Switzerland (Town Hall of Geneva), South Korea, Saudi Arabia and China.[citation needed]
The most important customs in Ulldecona are staging of processions with gegants, musical bands and pubilles, as well as traditional dances and the releasing of bulls in the streets (bous).
The Passió d'Ulldecona is a yearly festival reenacting the Passion of Jesus staged by local people, including a live donkey and real palm and olive branches.
One of the most important sports in Ulldecona is football. Ulldecona has its own football club, the Club de Futbol Ulldecona, with ten teams and 200 players.
