With about 1.2 million people, Surrey is the 12th-most populous English county which is divided into eleven districts. Guildford is commonly observed as the county town, although Surrey County Council is currently based in Reigate.

Three major motorways pass through the county, M25, M3 and M23, that easily make your travel to nearby counties and popular cities possible. Also, there are a number of national rail roots that enable long-distance journeys smooth and fast. The major stations in the county are Guildford, Woking, Epsom, Redhill and Staines.

The county has 41 independent schools, including Charterhouse (one of the nine independent schools mentioned in the Public Schools Act 1868) and the Royal Grammar School, Guildford. More than half the state secondary schools in Surrey have sixth forms. Brooklands (twinned with a site in Ashford, Surrey), Reigate, Esher, Egham, Woking and Waverley host sixth-form equivalent colleges each with technical specialisations and standard sixth-form study courses.
