Contrada (plural: contrade) is a generic name given to various types of Italian city subdivisions, now unofficial. Depending on the case, a contrada will be a località, a rione, a quartiere (terziere, etc.), a borgo, or even a suburb.

In Lombardy, a contrada is only a street, but with historical and social importance (like in Rijeka, Croatia between the 18th and 19th century. Contrade - streets in the old town).

In some parts of Sicily contrada is a subdivision of a Comune, also administrative.
In Veneto, particularly near the Alpine foothills, contrà indicates a smaller hamlet in a rural area (a group of houses usually smaller than a frazione); a synonym is colmel (Italian colmello); in some municipalities, mostly populated contrae are administered as neighbourhoods (Italian quartieri - quartiere=predio)
In Vicenza, a contrà used to be a neighbourhood in the town centre, but now it replaces the noun via (street = ulica) in the old town.
In Venice, each sestiere was subdivided in contrae.
In Mantua contrada indicates a street in the old town.
