O'Neill is a local government ward within Antrim and Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland, and combines suburban housing with surrounding patches of countryside typical of County Antrim. It functions as a neighbourhood-level unit for electing councillors to the borough council and is characterised by local shops, community halls and parish churches that help knit the area together.
The ward's name echoes the historic O’Neill dynasty of Ulster, and the area today mixes small-scale agriculture and local businesses with many residents who commute into nearby towns and cities such as Antrim and Belfast. Community groups, sporting clubs and local festivals are important to social life, reflecting a blend of recent suburban growth and longer-standing rural traditions.
