Springfarm is an electoral ward within the Antrim and Newtownabbey borough of Northern Ireland, largely residential with a mix of housing estates, local shops and community facilities. It sits on the northern fringe of the greater Belfast area and is within reasonable commuting distance of Belfast, so many residents travel for work while enjoying nearby parks and patches of countryside that give the ward a semi-suburban character.
The area grew with suburban expansion in the latter part of the twentieth century and today is defined by family housing, local schools and active community groups. Economically it is driven by a combination of small local businesses and commuters to nearby industrial estates and city employers, and its local council elections and community initiatives often focus on housing, transport and improving neighbourhood services.
