Jerrabomberra takes its name from a local Aboriginal place name said to mean 'boy frightened by storm'. John Palmer, a former First Fleet purser, took up the land in the colony's early decades, and the modern suburb's first homes were built in 1988. It has three parts: The Heights, at the foot of Jerrabomberra Mountain; The Park, on flatter land further south, separated from The Heights by Edwin Land Parkway; and Lakeview. Jerrabomberra Lake drains into Jerrabomberra Creek, and Allan McGrath Reserve on Silky Oak Circuit hosts cricket and AFL.

Most Jerrabomberra rentals are freestanding houses, with the odd duplex or townhouse. Building started in the late eighties and continued for years afterwards, so houses vary in age, and the earliest have seen plenty of use. Owners of those homes should plan for ageing hot water systems, heating, roofs, gutters and fences. Homes on The Heights can have sloping blocks with steps and retaining walls, while those closer to the lake sit on flatter ground. Larger gardens need a clear care arrangement from the start.

Jerrabomberra's lake, the slopes of Jerrabomberra Mountain, its community facilities and sports grounds draw renters, as does a location within easy reach of both Queanbeyan and Canberra, where many residents work.
