Libertad is a city located in Merlo Partido, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. It forms part of the Greater Buenos Aires urban conurbation.

Its origin goes back to the 1870s when, by that time, a rural settlement was trhiving around a "pulpería" (public house) called "La Libertad" (Freedom), from where the town took its name. During the last decades a group of prominent neighbors had been working to obtain the autonomy of the city and make Libertad a new partido in the province.

According to the census-ar|2001, the population was 100,476.

Libertad is bordered by Parque San Martín (west), Pontevedra (south), Merlo (northwest), San Antonio de Padua and Morón (north) and La Matanza (east).
