Villa Ballester is a city located in the northern Greater Buenos Aires urban area and it is part of the General San Martín Partido in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina.
It is served by the Línea Mitre commuter railway with its station also named Villa Ballester.
Pedro Ballester (4 December 1849 – 5 September 1928) started the development of the town in the late 1880s in some fields occupied by his family, the chacra Miguel Ballester y Flotat.
A key factor for the success of the new town was the train which provided fast access to Buenos Aires.
Hölters Schule, a German school, is in Villa Ballester.
