The commune is located in the south-central part of the county. It is traversed by the DN1B road, which runs from Ploiești to Buzău.

The river Teleajen flows through the commune north to south, separating it from Ploiești. The Bucovel is a left tributary of the Teleajen; it discharges into the Iazul Morilor Teleajen in Bucov.

The Battle of Bucov (also: Bukowo) was fought here in 1600.
