Na Hom is a tambon (subdistrict) located in Thung Si Udom District (amphoe) of Ubon Ratchathani Province in northeastern Thailand. The tambon forms part of the administrative hierarchy of Thailand, which is organized into provinces (changwat), districts (amphoe), subdistricts (tambon), and villages (muban).
Geography
Na Hom lies in the eastern part of Thung Si Udom District. The area is characterized by the typical low‑lying plateau of the Isan region, with agricultural land predominating and a network of minor waterways feeding into larger river systems of the province.
Administrative Structure
The tambon is subdivided into several villages (muban), each of which is overseen by a village headman (phu yai ban). Local governance is exercised by the Na Hom Subdistrict Administrative Organization (SAO), which is responsible for basic public services, local infrastructure, and community development projects.
Population
Reliable, up‑to‑date population figures for Na Hom are not readily available in publicly accessible, verifiable sources. Consequently, precise demographic data cannot be provided.
History
Thung Si Udom District was established in 1997 by separating several tambons from the neighboring districts of Det Udom and Sirindhorn. Na Hom was one of the tambons incorporated into the new district at that time.
Economy and Livelihood
The local economy is primarily based on agriculture, with rice cultivation and rubber planting being common activities in the region. Small‑scale trade and services supporting the agricultural sector also contribute to the tambon's economy.
Transportation
Roads connecting Na Hom to the district centre of Thung Si Udom and to neighboring districts facilitate the movement of goods and people. Public transportation options are limited, with most residents relying on private vehicles or motorbike taxis.
