Everyday life revolves around the High Street, with its antiques dealers and independent shops, and an antiques market stall sets up in town on Wednesdays. Hungerford Arcade, a Grade II listed building with records going back to 1676, has been an antiques centre since 1972. Eddington, across the canal, is the town's only suburb, so most homes are within walking distance of the centre. Schooling runs from Hungerford Nursery School Centre for Children through Hungerford Primary School to John O'Gaunt School, for ages 11 to 16.
The town's history lives on in its traditions. In the late 14th century John of Gaunt granted townspeople fishing rights on the Kennet, and each spring Hocktide, or Tutti Day, sees the Tutti Men visit properties with commoners' rights. The Hocktide Court still manages the town hall, the John of Gaunt Inn, the Common and Freeman's Marsh, a Site of Special Scientific Interest on the western side of town. Housing ranges from period properties around the High Street to more recent homes, as the town has grown steadily since the 1980s.
The River Dun and the Kennet and Avon Canal run side by side through the town, and the towpath gives a flat route for walking and cycling, with Littlecote House and the Crofton Beam Engines a short drive away. Hungerford station is on the Reading to Taunton line, with Great Western Railway trains to Newbury, Reading and London Paddington. The A4 Bath Road runs through the town, the A338 crosses it on its route between Oxford and Salisbury, and junction 14 of the M4 is a few miles to the north.
