Hilton is a large village and civil parish in South Derbyshire, Derbyshire, England, sitting on the fringe of the Derby urban area. It occupies a mainly low-lying, agricultural landscape and benefits from good road connections into Derby and the wider East Midlands, which has helped it grow from a traditional farming settlement into a largely residential community.

The village retains a villagey character with a mix of older buildings and newer housing, local shops, pubs and community groups, and a handful of small businesses serving residents. Historically agricultural, its economy today is largely commuter‑based, but local clubs, schools and annual events keep a strong social life and a sense of continuity with its rural past.
