About

Rawcliffe & Clifton South is a largely residential area situated to the northwest of York city centre, bordered by the River Ouse and the A1237 outer ring road. The neighbourhood is characterised by post-war housing estates, modern developments, and significant green spaces like Rawcliffe Country Park. Local amenities are focused on community hubs, including shops and schools serving the surrounding streets.

The area is defined by its proximity to the York Central development site, one of the largest city centre regeneration projects in the UK, which lies directly to its south.
