Sørreisa surrounds sheltered Reisafjorden and Reisvatnet, with farms and communities extending into Skøelvdalen. Straumen lies between Finnsnes and Bardufoss within a labour market crossing several municipal boundaries.
Wood-based industry and the armed forces are important employers alongside public services. Many residents nevertheless work in neighbouring municipalities, making proximity to coastal Finnsnes and inland Bardufoss central to everyday life.
