Overview

Hume, a light‑industrial suburb on Canberra’s southern fringe, sits beside the New South Wales district of Jerrabomberra. Named after explorer Hamilton Hume, its streets honour Australian industrialists and businessmen. The 2021 Census recorded 395 residents, a surge from just six in 2006, driven largely by the Alexander Maconochie Centre prison, which also creates a gender balance of 92.7 % male.
