Map of the UK

Hillside is a predominantly residential ward in the district of Adur, on the Sussex coast of West Sussex, England. It sits within the wider Brighton–Worthing commuter area and benefits from easy access to the nearby coast and the rolling South Downs, which give locals a mix of suburban streets, small parks and convenient connections for people working in Brighton or Worthing.

The area is characterised by a mix of inter‑war and post‑war housing, local shops and community facilities rather than large industry, so the economy is largely residential and service‑oriented with many commuters. Historically the ward grew as part of the 20th‑century suburban expansion around Shoreham-by-Sea and today it has a quietly active community life with neighbourhood groups, schools and green corridors linking to nearby recreational spaces.
