Staten Island (pengucapan: /ˌstætənˈaɪlənd/) adalah sebuah borough di New York City, New York, Amerika Serikat, terletak di daerah baratdaya kota. Staten Island terpisah dari New Jersey oleh Arthur Kill dan Kill Van Kull, dan dari seluruh New York oleh New York Bay. Dengan jumlah penduduk 491.730 jiwa, Staten Island adalah borough paling jarang penduduknya dari lima borough New York tetapi terbesar ketiga menurut luasnya yang mencakup 59 sq mi (153 km²).

Borough of Staten Island berdiri bersama Richmond County, county paling selatan di negara bagian New York. Hingga 1975, borough ini secara resmi bernama Borough of Richmond.^[2] Staten Island kadang disebut "borough yang terlupakan" oleh penduduk yang merasa diabaikan oleh pemerintah kota.^[3]^[4]

Staten Island secara keseluruhan merupakan borough paling pinggir di New York City. North Shore — khususnya permukiman St. George, Tompkinsville, Clifton, dan Stapleton — merupakan daerah perkotaan di pulau ini; daerah-daerah tersebut berisi distrik resmi St. George Historic District dan St. Paul’s Avenue-Stapleton Heights Historic District, yang memiliki banyak rumah bergaya Victoria. South Shore memiliki permukiman bergaya pinggiran kota dan merupakan tempat bagi F.D.R. Boardwalk sepanjang 2,5 mil yang menjadi jembatan pejalan kaki terpanjang keempat di dunia. Secara historis, bagian tengah dan selatan pulau pernah didominasi oleh peternakan sapi dan unggas, hampir semuanya menghilang pada abad ke-20.

Borough ini memiliki akses ke Brooklyn melalui Jembatan Verrazano-Narrows dan ke New Jersey melalui Goethals Bridge, Outerbridge Crossing, dan Bayonne Bridge. Staten Island memiliki layanan bus Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) dan jalur angkutan cepat MTA, Staten Island Railway, yang membentang dari terminal feri di St. George hingga Tottenville. Staten Island merupakan satu-satunya borough di New York City yang tidak memiliki angkutan cepat bawah tanah. Layanan gratis Staten Island Ferry menghubungkan borough ini dengan Manhattan dan menjadi atraksi wisata populer karena menyajikan pemandangan menarik menghadap Patung Liberty, Ellis Island dan Lower Manhattan.
