Hatfield South West is a residential ward on the southern edge of Hatfield in the borough of Welwyn Hatfield, Hertfordshire, England. It sits close to the town centre and the University of Hertfordshire campus and benefits from good commuter links, with the A1(M) and Hatfield railway station providing easy access to London and the rest of the Home Counties.
The area mixes post‑war and more recent housing with pockets of local shops, community centres and small business parks, reflecting both a settled family population and students. There are strong historic echoes nearby - notably the legacy of the Hatfield Aerodrome and the neighbouring estate at Hatfield House - and ongoing regeneration projects have aimed to improve public spaces, retail provision and transport connections. Socially it feels like a typical suburban ward with a diverse community and a local focus on services and neighbourhood facilities.
