List of neighbourhoods in Hamilton, Ontario

In 2001, the new city of Hamilton was formed. The Regional Municipality of Hamilton-Wentworth and its six local municipalities; Ancaster, Dundas, Flamborough, Glanbrook, Hamilton and Stoney Creek amalgamated. Before amalgamation, the "old" City of Hamilton was made up of 100 neighbourhoods. Today in the new megacity, there are over 200 designated neighbourhoods. The first four neighbourhoods in Hamilton were Beasley, Central, Durand and Corktown. Below is a list of some of the more noteworthy neighbourhoods found in the city of Hamilton:
