Harrow is a large suburban area in northwest London, historically part of Middlesex, centred on the chalk ridge of Harrow-on-the-Hill whose church and old streets give a village-like character. The famous Harrow School sits on the hill and the wider borough blends leafy residential neighbourhoods with busy town centres such as Harrow & Wealdstone.
Well connected by the Metropolitan line and National Rail services into central London, Harrow has a diverse population with strong South Asian communities reflected in its shops and restaurants, plus cultural venues like Harrow Arts Centre. The local economy mixes retail, education and small businesses, and there are plenty of parks and community events that give it a suburban yet cosmopolitan feel.
