Don Bosco is a locality and rail station in the north-eastern section of the Quilmes Partido (south of the Greater Buenos Aires, Argentina). Formerly called "Station of the 13th kilometer", it takes its name from the Salesians of Don Bosco and the Salesian Sisters of Don Bosco congregations located in Bernal; the same neighbors sought the name change, which was issued on 4 November 1929. The demonym for residents is bosquenses.
