Pontcanna is part of the Cardiff electoral ward of Riverside. The Riverside electoral ward falls into the parliamentary constituency of Cardiff West.
==Description==
Pontcanna is an area of wide tree-lined streets and large houses. It is a gentrified "media village" with a cafe culture-lifestyle centred on Pontcanna Street and Cathedral Road. There is both a large English born population (roughly 25%) and a somewhat smaller Welsh-speaking population (roughly 20%).〔Cardiff Council, 'Ask Cardiff: Facts and Stats - (Riverside (Census 2011 Lower Tier Super Output Areas 04, 05, 06 and 07) )'; accessed 17 May 2015.〕 The area was formerly home to the studios of TWW, Teledu Cymru, HTV and S4C's headquarters; the BBC's Broadcasting House is still nearby in Llandaff.
Pontcanna is a popular area for flats within Cardiff. Many of the larger villas (particularly on Cathedral Road) have been converted into flats, guest houses or business premises. Located on the edge of Cardiff city centre, Pontcanna gives easy access to the centre for professionals, as well as easy access via the Gabalfa roundabout to the A48(M) motorway.
