Map of the UK

Selden is a northern ward of Worthing in West Sussex, England. Sitting inland from the seafront, it is mainly residential with a mix of inter‑war and post‑war housing, local shopping parades and small green spaces that give it a quietly suburban character while remaining close to the town centre.

Historically part of agricultural land before Worthing's 20th‑century expansion, Selden today combines family homes, pockets of council housing and modest commercial activity; most residents commute locally or to nearby towns. Community life revolves around schools, clubs and neighbourhood events, and local councillors and volunteer groups play a visible role in shaping modest regeneration and services.
