Bowbells is about 20 km (12 miles) south of the Canadian border, just off a 90-degree bend in U.S. Highway 52 and along the Canadian Pacific Railway, a railway serving the SunPrairie Grain grain terminal there.

Farmers in the area produce crops such as barley, canola, flax, oats, peas, sunflowers, durum and Hard Red Spring Wheat.

The town is home to a Lutheran, a Methodist, and a Roman Catholic church. The VOA article quoted a town resident who pointed out that that the town's three Christian congregations often hold services together.

During a VOA reporter's visit, the town's main street included a boarded-up hotel, caf ฉ, hardware store, bowling alley, and a grocery store.
