{{Short description|District electoral areas in Derry, Northern Ireland}}
Northland was one of the five district electoral areas in Derry, Northern Ireland which existed from 1985 to 2014. The district elected six members to Derry City Council until 1993, and seven members until 2014, and formed part of the Foyle constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.
It was created for the 1985 local elections, replacing Londonderry Area D which had existed since 1973, and contained the wards of Crevagh and Springtown, Glen, Pennyburn, Rosemount, Strand and The Diamond. For the 1993 local elections it gained an additional ward, Foyle Springs. It was abolished for the 2014 local elections and replaced with the Foyleside DEA.
