Kortedala is a district in Gothenburg, Sweden. The district is divided into the primary statistical areas Norra Kortedala (Northern Kortedala) and Södra Kortedala (Southern Kortedala), which form part of the administrative city district area of North-East Gothenburg.
Kortedala was Gothenburg's first suburb, developed during the 1950s on previously undeveloped land in the northeastern outskirts of the city, covering 238 hectares where previously only croft-like buildings had existed. Its present area is 387 hectares. Some farmsteads in the southern parts remained until the early 1960s. Kortedala celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2003.
