Fadden’s eastern side is built on alluvium, while the western side consists of Deakin Volcanics rhyolite, which can appear green‑grey, purple or cream and dates from the Silurian period (about 414 ± 9 million years). A fault with a quartz outcrop runs north‑north‑west from MacArthur Hill.
Fadden was gazetted on 5 August 1975 and is named after Sir Arthur Fadden, who briefly served as Prime Minister of Australia in 1941. The suburb’s streets honour Queensland politicians.
At the 2021 census, Fadden had a population of 3,006 with a median age of 43 years. The median weekly household income was $3,302 and about three‑quarters (75.3 %) of residents were born in Australia.
