London Borough of Hackney [ˈhækni] ist ein Stadtbezirk von London und liegt nordöstlich des Stadtzentrums. Bei der Gründung von Greater London im Jahr 1965 wurde er aus den Bezirken Hackney, Shoreditch und Stoke Newington der ehemaligen County of London gebildet.

Hackney ist einer der ärmsten Stadtbezirke von London und weist mit "Manor House" nur einen einzigen U-Bahn-Anschluss auf. Durch die geplante Verlängerung der East London Line erhofft man sich jedoch eine Verbesserung der Situation. Die Bevölkerung setzt sich zusammen aus 59,46 % Weißen, 24,7 % Schwarzen, 8,6 % Südasiaten und 1,2 % Chinesen. Eine Partnerschaft besteht zum Landkreis Göttingen, zur Stadt Haifa in Israel sowie zu Bridgetown, der Hauptstadt von Barbados.
