It is near St Albans and part of the St Albans District. At the time of the 2001 census the population of London Colney ward was 7,742. It is considered a satellite or dormitory village of St Albans, where some villagers travel to work and shop. The long-running 84 bus route runs through London Colney towards St Albans, and through London Colney to Potters Bar, while the 602 and 359 also serve the village. By repute it is the second largest village in the United Kingdom, after Cottingham, near Hull.
London Colney is the site of the former Napsbury Hospital. London Colney became a civil parish in 1947, when the St. Peter Rural parish was split to form itself and Colney Heath.

The village boasts a large number of pubs compared with its relatively small size, in common with nearby St. Albans, which reputedly has the highest density of pubs per population size in the U.K. Starting from the southern end of the High Street, the pubs are: The Colney Fox (formerly The WaterSplash Hotel); The Bull; The Green Dragon; The White Lion; The Golden Lion; The Pear and Partridge (formerly the White Horse); and The King’s Head. The Swan pub stood on the northern side of the river for over 300 years before its demolition in the early 1970s. The Bell pub (on the roundabout at the Southern extreme of the village) sadly became a McDonalds restaurant in the 1990s.
