Municipal services operating in Järvelä include a primary school, a library, a kindergarten, a youth center, a health center and an indoor swimming pool.

Kärkölä High School, which operated in Järvelä, ceased operations in 2015 due to the small number of students,[2] which is why the nearest high school is now located on the Tavastia Proper side in Hausjärvi's Oitti.
