Downer originated as a CSIRO agricultural research site in the 1930s, was used for opium poppy cultivation during 1939‑1945, and many of the mature pine and gum trees date from that era, though a replacement programme has been underway since the 1980s.
It lies in the federal electorate of Canberra, represented by Alicia Payne (Labor), and in the ACT Legislative Assembly electorate of Kurrajong.
