The area became disparagingly referred to as 'spam valley', 'yuppie-land' and worse. The town has matured over the last 30 years, and is now fairly indistinguishable from many other property developments throughout the country. Houses are still being built with remarkable speed, and the following builders are all represented and competing for house buyers. The buildings are situated at the main traffic circle and act as a focal gateway entering Dalgety Bay.
Shopping is confined to two areas.
The older and smaller of these is located in the 'old'part of town, while the more modern development is situated adjacent to the church. Politically, Dalgety Bay is in the parliamentary constituency of Dunfermline East, which extends inland to Cowdenbeath and Lochgelly, and along the coast between Aberdour and North Queensferry which is the home of the local MP, Gordon Brown, Chancellor of the Exchequer. The political colour of the town is rather 'rainbow'. The town has an active and influential Community Council which endeavours to represent the interests of the people in the 'Bay' to the Labour controlled Fife Council.
