'''Cainta''', officially the '''Municipality of Cainta''' ({{langx|fil|Bayan ng Cainta}}, {{IPA|tl|kɐʔɪnˈtaʔ|IPA}}), is a [[municipality]] in the [[Provinces of the Philippines|province]] of [[Rizal (province)|Rizal]], [[Philippines]]. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 376,933 people.{{PH census|current}}

It is one of the oldest municipalities in Luzon (founded on August 15, 1571) and has a land area of {{convert|4299|ha}}.{{PSGC detail|area}}

As the country's [[List of cities and municipalities in the Philippines|3rd most populous municipality]] after [[Taytay, Rizal]] and [[Rodriguez, Rizal]], efforts are underway to convert it into a city. Its total assets amounting to {{Philippine peso|3,988,392,142.17|link=yes}} (as per 2017 [[Commission on Audit of the Philippines|Commission on Audit]] summary) makes it the richest municipality in the country in terms of income. However, Cainta faces different challenges especially with its boundary disputes with [[Pasig]] (Greenpark Village, Karangalan Village, St. Joseph Subdivision, Villarica Subdivision, Riverside and Midtown Village), Taytay, (Greenland and eastern part of Cainta) and [[Antipolo]] (Valley Golf and Country Club and Valley View), thus hindering cityhood efforts.
