It is located about 13 km north of Sundsvall (a town with a metropolitan area of some 100,000 inhabitants), and could arguably be considered a satellite to that town.
The two closest cities (Sundsvall and Härnösand) share one airport, Midlanda, that is geographically located in Timrå.
Indalsälven, one of Sweden's largest rivers with a length of 430 km, meets the Gulf of Botnia in Timrå.
In Sweden, Timrå is mainly known for its ice hockey club Timrå IK, which, as of season 2023/24 plays in the Swedish top division SHL.
In 1995, Swedish artist Bengt Lindström constructed the Y:et, a 30 meter high sculpture, dedicated to the letter Y.
Local legend says that Sörberge, on the north side of the town, is haunted by a tall man wearing a very large coat called 'Lilla Bubbas'.
