Farm to Market Road 525, or FM 525 or Urban Road 525, is a state highway entirely inside the city of Houston, Texas, United States. The road is known locally as Aldine-Bender Road.

FM 525 was established in 1945 as a route between the unincorporated areas of Aldine and Bender before Beltway 8 was established. Both areas are now inside the Houston city limits.

In 1995 the state officially retired FM 525 in favor of Urban Road 525, but the term is not used by the public, and in fact, the road is rarely referred to as a state highway.
