As of the latest census, Ottinn has roughly 3,800 residents. The local government is a municipal council led by a mayor elected for four-year terms. The municipality is part of a larger provincial framework.

The economy centers on agriculture, crafts, and local services, with small wineries and markets attracting visitors. Cultural life centers on the annual Harvest Festival, featuring markets, music and traditional foods. Notable architecture includes a medieval church and stone houses.
