With a population of around 4,000 inhabitants, it stands as one of Chile's least densely populated administrative divisions, where vast wilderness areas dominate over human settlement. The province is administratively divided into three communes: Tortel, O'Higgins, and Cochrane, with Cochrane serving as the provincial capital. Its territory includes significant portions of the Northern and Southern Patagonian Ice Fields, making it a region of global glaciological importance.
