The village's economy is primarily based on agriculture and animal husbandry, with residents cultivating crops and raising livestock for subsistence and local trade.

The geographical setting of Fshijan means it experiences a continental climate, with cold winters and warm summers. Like many rural Albanian communities, Fshijan has seen some emigration, particularly of younger generations seeking opportunities in larger cities or abroad. However, the village retains a strong sense of community and cultural heritage.

Access to Fshijan is typically via local roads, which can be challenging, especially during winter months. The nearest significant urban center is Peshkopi, the county capital, which provides essential services and a market for local produce. The natural beauty of the surrounding landscape offers potential for eco-tourism, although this sector is not yet highly developed. Information on the specific history and demographics of Fshijan is limited in broader public records, reflecting its remote and rural nature. The daily life of Fshijan's inhabitants is closely tied to the land and the changing seasons.
