The locality encompasses a large area of approximately 367 square kilometres of rugged bush country, yet recorded a population of just 27 people in the 2021 census, making it one of the most sparsely populated localities in the region. The area is named after the Baerami Creek watercourse that flows through the valley. It falls within the Electoral District of Upper Hunter and the federal Division of New England.
