1960 Taiwanese local elections
Local elections were held in Taiwan on 24 April 1960, the fourth nation-wide elections in post-war Taiwan, electing all 21 mayors of cities and magistrates of counties with a four-year tenure. Fuchien Province, then under military administration, was not up for election. Election for Taiwan Provincial Council was held alongside the local elections to elect 73 councillors.

The ruling Kuomintang (KMT) controlled 19 administrative divisions after the election. Democratic Socialists (CDSP) were represented on city-level again after winning Keelung election, while Tangwai opposition was elected in Kaohsiung in the fallout of last election's controversial election fraud.
