After that point, urban development replaced much of the farmlands. Today, about two-thirds of the land are residential areas. Empty space today can be found mostly in the western part, on Poikilo mountain. This is a rocky mountain, consisting mostly of [[limestone]], dotted with the occasional pine. There are also some last patches of forest to be found there, especially at the feet of the mountain.
 
The [[Antonis Tritsis Environmental SensitisationMetropolitan Park]] lies to the southeast of the municipality. The park is considered to be "one of the last wildlife reserves in the Athens urban environment", and it covers "more than 100,000 m2".<ref name="Vodafone">Website of Vodafone Greece, page on an environmental programme the company supports.

Furthermore, as it is directly on the municipality's boundaries, Kamatero municipality takes an active part in its administration, along with the neighbouring municipalities of [[Ilion, Greece|Ilion]] and [[Agioi Anargyroi]].<ref name="Vodafone" />
