Fairview is an electoral ward in the borough of Antrim and Newtownabbey in Northern Ireland, lying on the northern approaches to Belfast. It is largely residential, with a mix of post‑war and newer housing, pockets of green space and small local shopping areas, alongside some light industrial and commercial sites that serve the wider borough.
Community life in Fairview revolves around local schools, community centres and sports clubs, and many residents commute into Belfast for work. The ward reflects the wider district’s pattern of 20th‑century suburban growth and remains shaped by local civic groups and council services, with electoral politics playing a visible role in debates about housing, amenities and local development.
