Hunsdon is an electoral ward in East Hertfordshire, Hertfordshire, England, sitting close to the county boundary with Essex and within commuting distance of London. The ward is largely rural, made up of farmland, meadows and small village centres, with river corridors nearby that give pockets of wildlife and a quiet, village feel despite good road links to larger towns.

Historically the area is notable for the Tudor manor Hunsdon House and the nearby former wartime aerodrome at Hunsdon Airfield, reminders of a long local story that blends country life with national history. Today the community balances agriculture and small local businesses with a number of residents who commute out for work, and there remains an active local social scene centred on village halls, parish activities and conservation of the surrounding landscape.
