Its administrative centre is at Guankou Subdistrict ().

Liuyang is home to the Hakka people with a population of more than 200,000, who immigrated here from Meizhou of Guangdong or Jiangxi in later Ming and early Qing dynasties. It is one of the richest counties and county-level cities in tourism resources. As it was a revolutionary base area in the Chinese Communist Revolution, there are many red tourism attractions and former residences of famous figures.
