The Urban community of Nice Côte d'Azur (French: communauté urbaine Nice Côte d'Azur), is the former intercommunal structure gathering the city of Nice (France) and some of its suburbs. It was created in December 2008.^[1]

The Urban community of Nice Côte d'Azur encompassed essentially the eastern part of the metropolitan area of Nice (see infobox at Nice article for the metropolitan area), the western communes of the metropolitan area around Cannes and Antibes having refused to join in.

Those parts of the metropolitan area that were not inside the Community have formed different intercommunal structures, such as:

Communauté d'agglomération de Sophia Antipolis, with Antibes and Valbonne in it
Communauté d'agglomération du Moyen Pays Provençal
Communauté de communes du Pays des Paillons
etc.

On 1 January 2012, the urban community and three communities of communes merged becoming the Metropolis Nice Côte d'Azur.
