Within Cornwall, South West, St Stephens shares postcode district PL12 with neighbouring St Mellion, Tideford and Clampit. Bude's Cornish name, Porthbud, refers to an old holy man, and the town was the birthplace of British surf life saving, with the first club founded there in 1953.

The Bude and Greater Area Chamber of Commerce is a volunteer-run membership organisation representing local business views, affiliated with the county-wide Cornwall Chamber and open to businesses, charities and community groups across North Cornwall.
