Balintore holds a small but friendly community. Balintore was given a boost by the opening of a village hall a few years ago which includes a café.The Old Scout Hut has also recently been renovated next to the newly installed play park. On the sea front there is a plaque in commemoration of John Ross (missionary) 1842-1915 who was responsible for translation of the Bible into Korean.
