Florey is one of the nearest suburbs to Belconnen Town Centre, with the Belconnen district about 0.7 km away. Westfield Belconnen shopping mall is roughly 1.5‑2 km from the address.
Three ACTION bus routes operate in the suburb: Route 2, Route 3 and Route 40. These provide regular connections to nearby centres and the wider Canberra network.
The Florey shopping centre on Kesteven Street and Ratcliffe Crescent is nearby, as is the Hindu Temple and Cultural Centre on Ratcliffe Crescent. Florey Medical Centre on Kestevan Street and Hillview Park are also within easy reach.
In 2018 the ACT Healthy Waterways Project restored parts of the concrete drainage channel along Tattersall Crescent to a more natural creek‑like condition, helping to slow and clean stormwater that flows into Ginninderra Creek.
Florey sits on Silurian‑age volcanic rocks, including green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite of the Hawkins Volcanics, as well as rhyodacite, rhyolite and calcareous shale. The Deakin Fault also runs through the area.
Florey was gazetted on 5 August 1975 and most homes were built in the mid‑1980s. The suburb is named after Nobel‑winning scientist Howard Florey, and its streets honour Australian scientists.
