The Merindad de Uribe or Uribealdea is a historical subdivision of Biscay, Basque Country. Modernly it's usually considered by subdivisions caused by the urban development of the Greater Bilbao conurbation. These are:
- Bilbao (main city)
- Uribe-Kosta (Uribe-Coast), around Getxo
- Txoriherri, including Erandio
- Hego Uribe (Southern Uribe), around Basauri and Galdakao
- Mungialdea, around Mungia and Plentzia
Additionally, Barakaldo is now considered to be part of Left Bank and a few rural municipalities of the southernmost tip of historical Uribe are grouped with other areas in Arratia-Nerbioi.
Uribe is also a Basque surname. Etyologically seems to read under the city/town but its meaning is not clear.
