About the London Borough of Ealing
The London Borough of Ealing is a London borough in West London. It consists of seven major towns: Acton (W3), Ealing (W5, W13, NW10), Greenford (UB6), Hanwell (W7), Northolt (UB5), Perivale (UB6), and Southall (UB1, UB2). The borough has a population of 367,100, making it the third most populated in London.
As a result of its many parks and tree-lined streets, Ealing has long been known as the "Queen of the Suburbs"; the term was coined by Charles Jones, the borough surveyor in 1902. Ealing's coat of arms and logo reflect this by featuring the tree emblem.
