It is officially a municipal area with an area of 100.36 square kilometres (38.75 sq mi) and has a population of 72,133 as of 2025 estimate.

It was formerly known as Brunei Town until it was renamed in 1970 in honour of Omar Ali Saifuddien III, the 28th Sultan of Brunei and the father of Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah.
