Košice–okolie District (okres Košice–okolie; Hungarian: Kassa-vidéki járás) is a district in the Košice Region of eastern Slovakia around the city of Košice, which isn't part of the district. Until 1918, the district was mostly part of the Hungarian county of Abov-Turňa, apart from a small area in the north which formed part of the county of Šariš. According to a study on transfrontier co-operation, Hungarians make up 16.4% of the district's population.
