A coaxial connector, comprising:

• a housing including a terminal receiving portion into which a terminal connected to a coaxial cable is insertable from behind;
• and
• a retainer configured to be attached to the housing,
• wherein the terminal includes:
• a crimp portion crimped to have a polygonal cross-sectional shape, and
• a flange portion located forward of the crimp portion in an insertion direction of the terminal when the terminal has been inserted in the terminal receiving portion, the flange portion protruding circumferentially outward beyond the crimp portion,
• the housing includes a retainer insertion hole that passes through a wall of the terminal receiving portion in a direction intersecting the insertion direction of the terminal,
• the retainer includes:
• a fitting portion configured to be fitted around the crimp portion of the terminal including at least one corner of the crimp portion in an attached state in which the terminal has been received in the terminal receiving portion in a normal position and the retainer has been inserted into the retainer insertion hole and attached in an engagement position,
• an abutment portion configured to be in abutment with the flange portion of the terminal from behind in the attached state, and
• a recess formed between the fitting portion and the abutment portion to set back the fitting portion toward an outer circumferential face of the terminal in the attached state.
