Hackett lies about 4.5 km north‑east of the Canberra CBD, so the property is roughly that distance from the city centre.
Justice Robert Hope Park is about 0.7 km away, Calvert Park is around 1.4 km, and the Dickson Wetland and Dickson District Playing Fields are each within 1.5–1.7 km, providing easy access to green space.
The suburb sits on calcareous shales of the Canberra Formation, overlain by Quaternary alluvium, and the higher eastern side, where Hackett lies, rests on the lowest layer of the Ainslie Volcanics – a grey dacite with agglomerate and tuff.
Rivett Street is named after Albert Cherbury David Rivett, a noted chemist, reflecting Hackett’s tradition of naming streets after scientists.
Federally, Hackett is in the Division of Canberra, represented by Alicia Payne. In the ACT Legislative Assembly it falls within the electorate of Kurrajong, and locally it is served by the Hackett Community Association, part of the North Canberra Community Council.
