Komlós means "(place) with hops" in Hungarian, while prefix Tót is the word for Slovaks in old Hungarian. Hops also can be found in the coat of arms of the town.

Tótkomlós is located in the Great Hungarian Plain 225 kilometres (140 miles) southeast from Budapest. Mezőtúr-Orosháza-Mezőhegyes railway line crosses the town.^[1]

The Medieval village was ruined due to the Ottoman wars, native Hungarian population fled from the area. It was rebuilt after 1715 with Slovak settlers. Hungarians became the majority after the Czechoslovak-Hungarian population exchange.^[2]
