Perumanna is locally administered by Peumanna Grama Panchayath. It is part of Kozhikode revenue district and Kozhikode taluk.

Perumanna was well known for extensive fertile paddy fields and lush coconut tree groves. The paddy fields have become a thing of the past. They have mostly been filled up with soil excavated from nearby hillocks to build houses and commercial buildings. Very few farmers cultivate paddy. Non-availability of laborers and escalating labor costs are aggravating the situation. The fast diminishing of paddy fields has already affected the Eco-system adversely.
