The area around Xhafzotaj is very flat. The main road from Durrës to Tirana crossed the municipality while today the road leads mostly along the highway that bypasses the town to the northwest. Once a highly agricultural area, now the region is an important center of industry and trade in the Tirana-Durrës region.
