Cointe is an administrative district of the city of Liège, Belgium, located southwest of the city center. It encompasses the hill of Cointe itself, as well as its hillsides, but the valley to the west, known as the district of Les Bruyères, is generally associated with it.

Note: Hatert et al. (2002) place the locality in Ougrée, a section of the neighbouring municipality of Seraing.
