Athens B (Athens Beta; Greek: Β΄ Αθηνών) is a parliamentary constituency in Attica represented in the Hellenic Parliament. It covers the urban area of Athens outside the Municipality of Athens, which forms Athens A constituency. It was established in 1958, to separate the working-class districts from central Athens and reduce the electoral power of the then United Democratic Left. With 1.4 million registered voters, Athens B elected 44 Members of Parliament (MPs) (as of September 2015) by reinforced proportional representation and is the largest constituency in Greece.
