According to the SNNPR's Bureau of Finance and Economic Development, as of 2003 Durame's amenities include digital telephone access, postal service, 24-hour electrical service, two bank branches (Global bank and Commercial Bank of Ethiopia), and a hospital.
Following the Italian invasion, on 8 May 1936 a civil war erupted between the local population and the remaining Amhara, forcing local missionaries to evacuate the area. In 1962 a road linking Durame with Hosaena was constructed; bridges over the Markos and Dembe rivers were built in 1968.
