dwell, reside, live, inhabit
住 centers on making a place one's own: dwelling, residing, living, or inhabiting a location.
住 combines 亻 (person) with 主, which likely contributes the sound and carries a sense of staying or being fixed in place.
A person 亻 beside 主, like a master of a house, settles in and makes it their home. 住 means to dwell or reside.
For ジュウ, imagine a person dwelling in a huge, comfortable shoe: shoe -> ジュウ, and they live inside it.
