Enköping is a locality and the seat of Enköping Municipality, Uppsala County, Sweden, with 30,000 inhabitants in 2018.
== Geography == Enköping is situated near Lake Mälaren, about 78 km west of Stockholm. A comparably large number of Swedish cities are located in the vicinity of Enköping. The municipal slogan is therefore "Sweden's Closest City". This expression was created in 1965 when a local business discovered that 38 Swedish cities and a third of Sweden's population were within a radius of 120 kilometers of Enköping.
