The Mesogeia or Mesogaia (, "Midlands") is a geographical region of Attica in Greece.

The term acquired a technical meaning with the reforms of Cleisthenes in , when each of the ten Attic tribes was in territory composed of three zones (trittyes), urban (asty, the main city of Athens), interior (mesogeia) and coastal (paralia). In the Classical period, the mesogeia comprised about 47 settlements (demoi).
