Hillbrow ( /ˈhɪlbroʊ/) is an inner city residential neighbourhood of Johannesburg, Gauteng Province, South Africa. It is known for its high levels of population density, unemployment, poverty, prostitution and crime. Today, the majority of the residents are incoming migrants from the townships, rural areas and the rest of Africa, many living in abject poverty. An urban regeneration programme is underway. There are street markets, mainly used by local residents, and the Johannesburg Art Gallery contains work by major local artists including William Kentridge.

(en) Hillbrow est un quartier résidentiel du centre-ville de Johannesbourg, en Afrique du Sud. Il est réputé pour sa forte densité de population et ses taux élevés de chômage, de pauvreté et d'insécurité. Dans les années 1970, le quartier de Hillbrow était réservé aux groupes de population blanche en vertu du Group Areas Act avant de devenir une "zone grise" et l'un des premiers quartiers racialement mélangé, ouvert aux différentes ethnies du pays. Il devient rapidement un quartier cosmopolite et politiquement progressiste, particulièrement apprécié aussi des communautés gay et lesbiennes du pays. En raison d'une mauvaise planification de son infrastructure, il ne peut faire face à l'afflux de nouvelles populations. Le manque d'investissement, la dégradation des bâtiments principaux combiné à l (fr) Хиллброу (англ. Hillbrow) — жилой район южноафриканского города Йоханнесбург. Он известен высокой плотностью населения, безработицей, бедностью и преступностью. В 1970-е годы во времена апартеида Хиллброу был территорией "только белых", но вскоре стал "серой зоной", где вместе жили представители различных этнических групп. Район из-за плохого планирования инфраструктуры не смог справиться с быстрым ростом населения. Это наряду с отсутствием инвестиций привело к массовому бегству жителей среднего класса в 1980-е годы и заброшенности крупных зданий, в результате чего Хиллброу в 1990-е годы превратился в городские трущобы.
