Harlow, Essex, England, is located around forty-five kilometres north of the city centre of London. Around eighty-six thousand people live in the district, which was originally designed as one of the so-called New Towns. Those New Towns were planned communities after World War II. They followed the idea of the green garden city movement in the beginning of the twentieth century and were partly built for people who lost their houses during the war. As they are just outside of London, the original purpose was also to create new living space for citizens that were living in the overcrowded capital. For these reasons, you can find sustainable neighbourhoods with lots of open and green space in Harlow.

Manufacturing used to be crucial for the local economy. Since the traditional manufacturing industry generally declined, Harlow had to adapt to it. However, the unemployment rate is still higher than the average in the country. Even if Harlow does not have a long tradition like many other British towns, there are some cultural institutions worthwhile to visit.

The supply of Harlow, Essex, England hostels is limited, but what exists is rather small and cosy.
