Lääneprovints jaguneb kolmeks peamiseks piirkonnaks: Colombo (642 km²), Gampaha (1386,6 km²) ja Kalutara (1606 km²). Sri Lanka majanduskeskusena on linnas esindatud kõik suuremad kohalikud ja rahvusvahelised ettevõtted, samuti kõik suuremad disainer- ja tänavakaupmehed, seega olge valmis nautima jaemüügiteraapiat lääneprovintsis.

Kuna linnas on kõigist provintsidest kõige suurem rahvaarv, asuvad seal peaaegu kõik saare parimad haridusasutused.
