The Zone 3 of Milan, since 2016 officially Municipality 3 of Milan, (in Italian: Zona 3 di Milano, Municipio 3 di Milano) is one of the 9 administrative divisions of Milan, Italy.[1]

It was officially created as an administrative subdivision during the 1980s. On 14 April 2016, in order to promote a reform on the municipal administrative decentralization, the City Council of Milan established the new Municipality 3, a new administrative body responsible for running most local services, such as schools, social services, waste collection, roads, parks, libraries and local commerce.[2]

The zone lies on the north-eastern part of the city. A significant part of its area is occupied by universities campuses of Studies' City (in Italian: Città Studi).
