The Local Group is the galaxy group that includes the Milky Way. The Local Group comprises more than 54 galaxies, most of them dwarf galaxies. Its gravitational center is located somewhere between the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy. The Local Group covers a diameter of (about 10^23 meters) and has a binary (dumbbell) distribution. The group itself is a part of the larger Virgo Supercluster, which in turn may be a part of the Laniakea Supercluster.

Local group may refer to:

• In astronomy, the Local Group, a system of nearby galaxies
• In mathematics, a generalization of the topological group, where operations are defined only in neighborhoods of the identity element
