The municipality covers an area of 421.6 km². Of the total population of 28,487, 14,249 are male, and 14,238 are female. The population density of the community is 68 inhabitants per km².

The city of Eslöv received its privileges in 1911 after incorporating the town of Västra Sallerup . Eslöv had been a town by its own since 1875. Today the city has a growing population of 15,400 (1996). Eslöv was but a small village until the Southern Railline (Södra Stambanan) between Stockholm and Malmö was run through in the mid-1800's. Trade flourished around the new station and eventually it also attracted industrial settlings. Among the city's companies are Procordia Food AB (former Felix AB).

The city has won the not so charming title "most boring city in Sweden" several times.
