Northamptonshire is a landlocked county in the English East Midlands, with a population of around 700,000. It has boundaries with Warwickshire to the west, Leicestershire and Rutland to the north, Cambridgeshire (including the city of Peterborough) to the east, Bedfordshire to the south-east, Buckinghamshire (including the borough of Milton Keynes) to the south, Oxfordshire to the south-west, and Lincolnshire to the north-east.

Northampton is the largest town in the county, with a population of 189,474 people at the time of the 2001 census. This is followed by Wellingborough (72,519), Kettering (51,063), Corby (49,222), Rushden (25,849), and Daventry (22,367). The University of Northampton has 10,000 students and two campuses.

Historically, Northamptonshire's main industry was the manufacture of boots and shoes; R Griggs and Co Ltd, the manufacturer of Dr. Martens, still has its UK base in Wollaston near Wellingborough. Weetabix breakfast cereal is made at Burton Latimer near Kettering, and Carlsberg beer is brewed in Northampton. Other major employers in the county include Avon Cosmetics, Siemens, Barclaycard, Saxby Bros Ltd and Golden Wonder.

The area of Northamptonshire, Oxfordshire and South Midlands has been described as "Motorsport Valley... a global hub" for the industry. The Mercedes GP and Force India Formula One teams have their bases at Brackley and Silverstone respectively, while Cosworth and Mercedes-Benz High Performance Engines are also in the county at Northampton and Brixworth. International motor racing takes place at Silverstone Circuit and Rockingham Motor Speedway, while Santa Pod Raceway is just over the border in Bedfordshire.

Major national roads including the M1 motorway and the A14, provide Northamptonshire with transport links, both north–south and east–west. The A43 joins the M1 to the M40, passing through the south of the county to the Junction west of Brackley and the A45 links Northampton with Wellingborough and Peterborough. Also two rail routes, the West Coast Main Line and the Midland Main Line traverse the county.

Several important rivers have their sources in the north-west of the county, including the River Nene, which flows north-eastwards to The Wash, and the "Warwickshire Avon", which flows south-west to the Severn.

Northamptonshire's most successful sporting participation is in rugby union; its premier team, Northampton Saints, compete in the Guinness Premiership and achieved the status of European champions in 2000.
