Sussex is a historic county and cultural region in the south of England corresponding roughly in area to the ancient Kingdom of Sussex.

It is bounded on the north by Surrey, north-east by Kent, south by the English Channel, and west by Hampshire, and is divided for local government into West Sussex and East Sussex and the city of Brighton and Hove.

The city of Brighton & Hove was created a unitary authority in 1997, and was granted City status in 2000. Until then Chichester had been Sussex's only city.

By convention, Chichester is Sussex's capital city and Lewes is Sussex's county town.

Sussex is 120 km (75 mi) long and is between 35 km (22 mi) and 40 km (25 mi) wide, and encompasses approximately 3,783 square kilometres (1,461 sq mi).

Sussex is slightly larger than the English county of Cornwall or 50 per cent larger than Luxembourg. Sussex has a population of about 1.6 million, about the same as the US state of Idaho and about three times the population of Cornwall.

​The coast has consistently more sunshine than the inland areas: sea breezes, blowing off the sea, tend to clear any cloud from the coast; the coastal resorts of Sussex and neighbouring Hampshire are the sunniest places in the United Kingdom. 

Sussex is divided into two administrative counties (East Sussex and West Sussex) and one unitary authority, Brighton and Hove.
 

A rape was a traditional sub-division of the county of Sussex. Their origin is unknown, but they appear to predate the Norman Conquest. Each rape was split into several hundreds.
 

At the time of the Norman Conquest, there were four rapes: Arundel, Lewes, Pevensey and Hastings. The rape of Bramber was created later in the 11th century and the rape of Chichester was created in the 13th century.

The Sussex dialect is also notable in having an unusually large number of words for mud, in a way similar to the popular belief which exists that the Inuit have an unusually large number of words for snow.

The divisions of east Sussex and west Sussex have their roots in the church's division of the county at the river Adur into east and west parts (divided from at least the 11th century into the archdeaconry of Chichester and the archdeaconry of Lewes).

With Sussex's cathedral located at Chichester in the far west of the county, 9 miles from the western boundary and 90 miles from the eastern boundary, it became practical to divide the county into two sections. The three eastern rapes of Sussex became east Sussex and the three western rapes became west Sussex.
 

An act of Henry VII dating from 1504 directed that, for convenience, the two halves of the county should have separate administrations (Quarter Sessions). This situation was recognised by the County of Sussex Act 1865.

Under the Local Government Act 1888, the two divisions became two administrative counties (along with three county boroughs: Brighton, Hastings and, from 1911, Eastbourne).

Sussex has considerable variation in wealth and deprivation. Gross Value Added, a measure of output, was £27,464 million for Sussex in 2009. GVA per head in 2009 for Sussex was £17,590, higher than neighbouring Kent but around 86 per cent of the UK average of £20,341. GVA per capita varies significantly between Sussex's three upper tier local authority areas: in 2009 Brighton and Hove had the highest GVA per head in Sussex with an average of £20,611 (101 per cent of the UK average).

The local authority area of East Sussex has the lowest with a GVA per head of £13,521, 66 per cent of the UK average.

There is also serious deprivation in Sussex comparable to the most deprived UK inner city areas. Some areas of Sussex are in the top 5 per cent most deprived in the UK and, in some areas, two-thirds of children are living in poverty. In 2011, two Local Enterprise Partnerships were formed to improve the economy in Sussex.

These were the Coast to Capital LEP, covering West Sussex, Brighton and Hove and the Lewes district in the west of East Sussex, as well as parts of Surrey and South London; and the South East LEP, which covers the local authority area of East Sussex, as well as Kent and Essex.

In the most populous part of Sussex, around the Brighton and Hove Built-up area, the Greater Brighton City Deal was formed to enable the area to fulfil its economic potential, into one of the highest performing urban economies in the UK.

Tourism in Sussex is well-established, and includes seaside resorts and the South Downs National Park.

Brighton and Hove has a high density of businesses involved in media, particularly digital or "new media"; since the 1990s Brighton has been referred to as "Silicon Beach". The Greater Brighton City Deal seeks to develop Brighton's creative-tech cluster under the name Tech City South.

The University of Sussex and the University of Brighton provide employment for many more. A large part of the county, centred on Gatwick Airport has been recognised as a key economic growth area for South East England whilst reasonable rail connections allow many people to work in London.

Several large companies are based in Sussex including:

• American Express (Brighton),
• The Body Shop (Littlehampton),
• Bowers & Wilkins (Worthing),
• Hastings Insurance and Park Holidays UK (Bexhill),
• Ricardo plc (Shoreham-by-Sea),
• Rolls-Royce Motor Cars (Goodwood),
• Thales UK (Crawley),
• Alfa Laval (Eastbourne)
• Virgin Atlantic Airways (Crawley).
