Home counties 家乡诸郡
(重定向自The Home Counties)
The home counties are the counties of England that surround London. The counties generally included in the list are Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Surrey, and Sussex (although Sussex does not border London). Other counties more distant from London—including Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Hampshire and Oxfordshire—are also sometimes included in the list because of their proximity to London and their connection to its regional economy. Many towns and villages within the home counties form part of the London commuter belt, from which it is practical to commute to work in the capital.
