Nad jazerom, officially Košice – mestská časť Nad jazerom, shortened to Košice-Nad jazerom (literally: "Košice – borough Above the Lake", Hungarian: Tóvárosi lakótelep) is a borough (city ward) of Košice, Slovakia. The borough is situated in the Košice IV district and lies to the southeast and south of the neighbouring boroughs of Košice-Juh and Vyšné Opátske, at an altitude of roughly 192 metres (630 ft) above sea level. The name of the borough is derived from a water reservoir called Jazero, which was originally excavated for the extraction of gravel.
