Independencia is a historic barrio (neighborhood) within the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina—not a separate municipality or country. According to the 2010 national census (the most recent comprehensive data available), the neighborhood's population was 17,110 residents.
Buenos Aires is divided into 48 official barrios. Independencia lies in the central-southern part of the city, bordered by San Telmo, Monserrat, Constitución, and Parque Patricios. It's known for its early 20th-century architecture, the iconic Club Atlético Independiente stadium (though the club moved to Avellaneda), and a vibrant mix of residential and commercial streets.
