Mataram operates as the administrative and commercial core of Lombok rather than a resort town.
Daily transport relies on a distinct split between motorized and traditional vehicles. Bluebird metered taxis provide reliable crosstown transit, while public bemos run set routes connecting Ampenan and Cakranegara. Bemos stop frequently to tout for business, and passengers face persistent pickpockets along commercial corridors. Near produce markets, horse carts known as cidomo handle short trips and slow vehicular traffic.

Living here centers on regional cuisine rather than tourist-oriented dining. Neighborhood warungs serve local staples such as ayam taliwang chicken, spicy beef sate rembiga, plecing kangkung water spinach, and sate bulayak with rice cakes. These establishments cater primarily to local residents and keep dining expenses low. Coffee shops serve local kopi lombok and ginger tea alongside fresh fruit juices throughout the day.
Social customs require adjustments from foreigners accustomed to coastal resort life. Public consumption of alcohol is not condoned, and wine service remains restricted to upscale hotels. Long-term residents use the city as an administrative and transit base. Mandalika terminal connects the provincial capital by scheduled DAMRI buses to the regional airport, while regular ferries run from the southern port of Lembar.
