Agios Ioannis Rentis (Greek: Άγιος Ιωάννης Ρέντης, first part meaning Saint John) is a suburb in the southwestern part of Athens, Greece. It is located S of Athinon Avenue, about 6 km W of Athens, N of Poseidonos Avenue and NE of Piraeus.

The area was made up of farmlands and some forests dominated the northern part of the area.
