According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 93,937 people, making it the most populous town in the province.[4]

Monkayo is an agricultural town, with vast tracts of land planted to rice and banana. The municipality is also host to the gold-rich barangay of Mount Diwata, popularly known as "Diwalwal" (which in the local dialect means one's tongue is hanging out due to exhaustion), a 1,000-meter high range known for its rich gold ore deposit.

Monkayo's seat of government is located in Barangay Poblacion.
