Nearby you’ll find a neighbourhood oval bordering Clarey Crescent, a water tower in the north‑west, and a local shopping centre with a butcher, hairdresser, baker, chemist, supermarket and coffee shop. The Tongan Community Centre and a donation‑only café run by the Mount Rogers Community Church are also within walking distance.
Spence sits on Silurian‑age Hawkins Volcanics, including green‑grey dacite, quartz andesite, and dacitic porphyry intrusive rock with white feldspar crystals. A shale lens is also present in the south‑central part of the suburb.
The suburb was originally named after William Spence, a founder of the Australian Workers’ Union and early federal MP. In 2023 it was retrospectively co‑named to also honour suffragette Catherine Helen Spence.
