Living in Hillside – Area & Property Guide

Bulawayo's best-known low-density suburb, with large stands and the Hillside Dams nearby.

Area overview

Hillside is a settled, leafy suburb of large family homes on generous stands, long regarded as one of Bulawayo's most desirable residential areas. The Hillside Dams conservancy gives residents walking and picnic space on the doorstep, and schools, clinics and local shopping are all close. Boreholes and solar systems are common given the city's water and power patterns, and properties here hold their value well relative to the rest of Bulawayo.
