The municipality has a population of 8,721 (31 March 2016) and covers an area of 389.32 square kilometres (150.32 sq mi) of which 8.98 km2 (3.47 sq mi) is water. The population density is 22.37 inhabitants per square kilometre (57.9/sq mi).

Geographically, and to some extent politically, Hausjärvi is characterized by its three population centres, Hikiä (population 1,135), Oitti (population 2,416) and Ryttylä (population 1,842). The administrative center of the municipality is Oitti, but politically there sometimes emerges debate on which centres should be developed and/or made targets of public investment.

The municipality is unilingually Finnish.
