Puerto Rico, på engelska officiellt Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, på spanska officiellt Estado libre asociado de Puerto Rico, är en ögrupp – alternativt ö med tillhörande skärgård – i Karibien. Den fungerar som ett självstyrande territorium tillhörande USA. Efter Parisfreden (1898) började USA använda det anglifierade namnet Porto Rico, men det avskaffades av USA:s kongress i maj 1932. Ön är den minsta av öarna i Stora Antillerna, ungefär lika stor som Östergötlands yta. Viktigare öar vid sidan av huvudön är Culebra, Vieques och Mona. Puertoricaner kallar ofta sig själva för borinqueños eller boricuas.
