Szigetszentmiklós, District seat in Pest County, Hungary

Szigetszentmiklós extends across 45.65 square kilometers on Csepel Island, bordered by the Danube River and located south of Budapest in central Hungary.

The settlement, first documented in 1264, remained largely agricultural until its transformation into an official town in January 1986, marking a shift toward urbanization.

The local population includes a mix of ethnic groups with Hungarians forming 91.3%, while Germans, Slovaks, Roma, and Bulgarians contribute to the community diversity.

The town maintains direct transportation connections to Budapest through multiple road networks and public transit services, facilitating daily commutes for its 40,000 residents.

The name of the settlement combines three Hungarian words: sziget meaning island, szent referring to saint, and miklós deriving from Nicholas.
