I was home to about 2000 people but still couldn't be seen by some others.

Heard Island?

 

[Bobh]

Not Heard Island. It's on mainland Australia although some of the accents heard you would think it was overseas.

 

[LORD]

Pine gap?

 

[backcreek]

Cowra POW camp.

 

[Bobh]

LORD had right accent but wrong locality.
Backcreek wrong state.
Next clue - it could be quite dangerous detecting artefacts.

[Bobh]

Not Woomera

 

[Bobh]

Next clue. Part of me went north / south

 

[Rockhunter62]

How about Exmouth,WA

 

[Bobh]

Correct state but not locality.
Next clue. The other part of me went east west.

 

[Tathradj]

About the only thing I know of that traverses both North South,
East West is the railway system. ?

 

[BigWave]

How about NAS Harold E. Holt on North West Cape?
