This region is known for its rugged terrain and cultural diversity, offering a glimpse into the traditional lifestyle of the people living in the Himalayan foothills. Mijhing, like much of Rolpa, is characterized by its agricultural landscape, with farming being the primary source of livelihood for its inhabitants.

According to the 1991 Nepal census, Mijhing had a population of 4,391 individuals residing in 1,128 households. This demographic data provides insight into the settlement's size and structure during that period, highlighting a tightly-knit community with families living in close proximity. The village development committee status indicates that Mijhing played a significant role in local governance, contributing to the district’s administrative framework.

In recent decades, the area has experienced changes due to factors like migration, economic development, and infrastructural improvements. However, Mijhing retains much of its traditional charm, with cultural practices and communal living still prevalent. It remains an important part of Rolpa’s socio-economic fabric, reflecting both the challenges and resilience of rural life in Nepal.
