Caw is an electoral ward within the Derry City and Strabane district of Northern Ireland, situated on the outskirts of Derry/Londonderry. It has a mixed suburban–rural character, with residential streets and pockets of farmland; many residents commute into the city while still enjoying relatively easy access to the surrounding countryside.

Socially and culturally the area mirrors the wider city, bearing traces of twentieth‑century industrial change and the Troubles but also a strong tradition of community activism. Local schools, sports clubs and community groups have been prominent in regeneration efforts, and small businesses and services combine with links to the city centre to form the ward’s economic base.
