To the east, the boundary was historically defined by German Brook and German Lane (now Washington Lane), whereas the boundary is now broadly aligned with West Way. The southern boundary is formed by the River Yarrow, while to the west, the parish boundary follows historic field lines from Runshaw Moor southwards to the point where the A581 changes from Dawbers Lane to Southport Road near the Elephant Restaurant and on to the Yarrow.
Euxton is served by five primary schools: Balshaw Lane Primary, Primrose Hill Primary, Euxton C of E Primary, Euxton RC Primary and Trinity C of E/Methodist Primary School.
