Mile Oak is a residential neighbourhood situated on the northern fringes of Portslade, bordering the South Downs. The area is characterised by post-war housing estates, semi-detached homes, and several local parks, providing a quieter alternative to the central city.

The area is defined by its proximity to the downland, with the Mile Oak Recreation Ground and the wider Truleigh Hill area providing direct access to walking routes.
