== Geography ==
From the northern edge of Forbury Hill a wide spur runs in a northerly direction which can be seen in the south-west from much of South Dunedin. Calton Hill is the most northern prominence of this hillside, before it terminates at the Caversham Valley. The majority of the suburb is between 60 and 100 m above sea level. It is approximately 6 km by road from the city centre (The Octagon). There is farmland on the hill's south-western border, whilst the other directions are all residential suburbs, including Caversham, Corstorphine, Concord and Lookout Point.
Suburbs in New Zealand are often not clearly defined, and their boundaries can overlap. In some cases residents may identify with more than one suburb. The general area of Calton Hill is bounded by Caversham Valley Road (part of the Dunedin Southern Motorway) to the north; Riselaw Road in the south-west; Corstophine Road in the south-east (as far as the Sidey Street intersection); and Sidey Street, Cole Street and the western terminus of South Road in the north-east. This area covers approximately 200 acres (80 hectares).
