The borough comprises the towns and villages of Canvey Island, Hadleigh, South Benfleet, and Thundersley where the council has its headquarters.The national land use survey carried out for the following census in 2005 by the Office for National Statistics showed more than 50% ({{convert|27.070|km2|0}}) of the borough was in its non-gardens definition of green space: here a mixture of agricultural fields, natural marshland and sports grounds/courses and it had the second lowest area in England covered by non-domestic buildings: {{convert|0.55|km2}}. More than one fifth of the area, {{convert|9.6|km2}}, was made up of the second-highest category of use: gardens. The district ranked 295th in area of the 325 districts in England in area. The district relies heavily on other parts of Essex including factories and ports in Tilbury, the large town of Southend-on-Sea and on Central London for its largest sources of employment and as it has areas of seaside resort the median age of residents was in 2011 greater than the national average: 7% of its residents were aged 75 to 84 compared with 5.5% nationally.==History==The district was formed on 1 April 1974 by the merger of Benfleet and Canvey Island Urban Districts. Its name contains references to the principal landmarks of the combined urban districts: Hadleigh Castle and Canvey Point. The district was granted borough status in 1992.==Governance=={{see also|Castle Point Borough Council elections}}Elections to the borough council are held in three out of every four years, with one third of the 41 seats on the council being elected at each election. The Conservative and Labour parties have both had majorities on the council, with Labour running it from 1973 to 1976 and 1995 to 2003, while the Conservatives have run it between 1976 and 1995, and since the 2003 election. The Conservatives lost their majority at the 2014 election but regained it in November 2014 after a defection.
