Bender is located in western Hungary at an altitude of about 300 meters above sea level and is surrounded by vineyards and farmland. According to the latest figures, the village has a population of less than 500 people and maintains the lifestyle of a traditional farming community. The local architecture is dominated by single-storey farmhouses with red tiles and white walls scattered among the rolling hills.
The economy is dominated by agriculture and wine growing, with a number of family-owned wineries producing fine wines in the surrounding area. Small folk events are held each fall during the grape harvest. The Roman Catholic church in the center of the village was built in the 18th century and is a local landmark.
