The district covers approximately 1,200 square kilometers of mountainous terrain characterized by deep valleys and high peaks. With an estimated population of around 35,000 people, Yamgan is home to predominantly ethnic Tajik communities who maintain traditional agricultural and pastoral livelihoods in this difficult environment. The district is administratively divided into several smaller sub-districts and villages that are scattered throughout its mountainous landscape. Yamgan's location in northeastern Afghanistan places it near the country's border with Tajikistan, though the district itself does not share an international boundary.
