Northcliff is an affluent residential suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa. The suburb is located on Northcliff Ridge which offers vistas of the Central Business District on one side, and the leafy northern suburbs on the other. Northcliff's huge homes are nestled around a steep incline of the hill and on the foot of Northcliff borders the suburbs of Fairlands, Blackheath, Cresta and Berario. Recently some streets have been boomed in order to give Northcliff's high-income residents more security and exclusivity.
