It serves as the capital of Tuy Province, within the Hauts-Bassins Region in the western part of the country.

Houndé is situated roughly 100 kilometres east-northeast of Bobo-Dioulasso. The locality is also connected with the Houndé Mine, a major gold mine in the surrounding region. The mine is mostly owned by Endeavour Mining, making gold extraction an important part of the area's economic significance.
