Downer was originally an agricultural research site for the CSIRO, later used for opium poppy cultivation during World War II. The suburb was gazetted in 1960, named after Sir John Downer, and its historic community centre and shops date back to the 1930s.
The ground is formed from calcareous shales of the Canberra Formation, overlain by Quaternary alluvium, reflecting the region’s original “Limestone Plains” character.
Downer lies in the federal electorate of Canberra, represented by Alicia Payne of the Labor Party, and in the ACT Legislative Assembly’s Kurrajong electorate, which elects a mix of Labor, Green, Liberal, and Independent members.
