The municipality has a population of 2,616 (31 October 2024)[2] and covers an area of 328.79 square kilometres (126.95 sq mi) of which 41.52 km2 (16.03 sq mi) is water.[1] The population density is 9.1 inhabitants per square kilometre (24/sq mi). The most significant road connection in the municipality is the main road 68 between towns of Virrat and Jakobstad.

In sport, Vimpeli is known for the success of its Finnish baseball team, Vimpelin Veto, which won gold in the 2010, 2016 and 2017 seasons in the Finnish championships. The Island Field ballpark is the home field of Vimpelin Veto,[6] and its well-known competitor is Sotkamon Jymy from Sotkamo, known as long-time arch-enemy of Vimpelin Veto.[7]
