The village is slowly growing into a town, with a population estimate of about 13 000 (2004 census) people of different tribes including Bangwato, Batalaote, Babirwa, and others.

[1] Batalaote settled and lived near the Makome hill and occupied the Kelele and Seboo wards.

Those from South Africa settled and stayed near Maretemagolo hill and formed Manga and Matabi wards.

The people of Mmadinare prefer a very quiet life and low profile lifestyle and like their customs and traditions like eating traditional food (mabele) while at the same time trying to develop into a small town without losing its past as it gets a major influence from the neighbor town of Selibe Phikwe.

[citation needed] The village contains a police station, a senior secondary school and the Letsibogo Dam.
