Slough, Administrative borough in Berkshire, England

Slough extends across 13 square miles of land between London and Reading, containing residential areas, commercial districts, and industrial zones along the M4 motorway.

The town transformed from a small hamlet into an industrial center after 1920 when the Slough Trading Estate became the largest industrial area in single private ownership in Europe.

The population of 158,500 residents represents multiple ethnic groups, with Asian communities making up nearly half of the total inhabitants according to the 2021 census.

Six railway stations serve the borough, connecting it with London Paddington in 20 minutes, while Heathrow Airport stands just 7 miles to the southeast.

The borough contains the headquarters of numerous international corporations, establishing itself as one of the primary business centers outside central London.
