Greenhills is a residential area on the south eastern boundary of the East Kilbride. The streets are mainly named after trees, ducks and golf courses. The housing stock was built from early 1970s to late 1970s/early 1980s. The pub was built around the mid 1970s. Greenhills Parish Church was built April 1977.

The Greenhills shopping centre is situated adjacent to the highest point in East Kilbride, known locally as 'The High Point', and which is believed to be the motte of a medieval wooden castle.[1] The shopping centre is served by some of the local bus services to and from Glasgow chiefly the 18 and 21 First Glasgow Bus routes.

Until June 2005, Greenhills was served by two secondary schools, Ballerup ( which was surrounded by farmland) and St Andrews, both built in 1978. These schools have since merged with two other schools, Duncanrig and St Brides, respectively, as part of East Kilbride's school modernisation programme. Greenhills is 699 ft (213m) elevation, above sea level.
