هند کوچک (انگلیسی: Little India)یا محله هندی‌ها (زبان هندی: छोटा भारत) (کمتر به خیابان هند یا بازار هند معروف است) یک محیط فرهنگی اجتماعی هندی یا دسی[۱][۲] (جنوب آسیا) در خارج از هند یا شبه‌قاره هند است.[۳][۴][۵][۶][۷][۸][۹] این نام به ویژه به یک ناحیه دارای سکونت گاه‌های هندی و مجموعۀ متنوعی از کسب و کارهای هندی اشاره دارد. بیشتر مواقع، هند کوچک دارای معابد هندو، مساجد و گردواره‌ها می‌باشد. آنها ممکن است هم چنین میزبان جشن‌های ملی و حشنواره‌های مذهبی باشند و به عنوان مکان‌های گردهمایی مردم جنوب آسیا به کار گرفته شوند. بر این اساس، آنها نمونۀ کوچکی از هند هستند. هندهای کوچک اغلب جاذبه‌های گردشگری هستند و طرفداران غذای هندی، فرهنگ هندی، پوشش هندی، موسیقی هندی و سینمای هند در آن رفت و آمد می‌کنند.[۱۰][۱۱][۱۲]
