The county of Carlow has a population of 56,932. The River Barrow flows through the town, and forms the historic boundary between counties Laois and Carlow.

The town has played a major role in Irish history, serving as the capital
County Meath Gaeltacht areas in the province of Leinster, at Ráth Chairn and Baile Ghib. Meath has seven land borders and also a small stretch of coastline stretching from Mornington to Gormanston beach. The counties that Meath border are; Dublin, Westmeath, Louth, Offaly, Kildare, Cavan, and Monaghan. There are eighteen historic baronies in the county. They include the baronies of Morgallion and Ratoath. While baronies continue to be officially defined units, they are no longer used for many administrative purposes. Their official status is illustrated by Placenames Orders made since 2003, where official Irish names of baronies are listed under "Administrative units".
