Bigger city areas

Naturally, Stockholm appeals to a lot of people who love metropolitan life. It is full of culture, intensive in social welfare, and offers jobs in different industries, particularly in attracting both working professionals and families.

Home to the second largest population in Sweden, Gothenburg offers enjoyment at a lower metropolis lifestyle. Since it is by the sea, Gothenburg is wedged in between those who live in the city but love the outdoors. Its schools and industries have been good for many families and expatriates too.

Located in the southern tip of Sweden and only a bridge away from Copenhagen in Denmark, Malmö offers a fresh blend of culture. It is also becoming a focal point for green technology and development and therefore is becoming perfect for professionals and young families looking for an ideal place in Sweden.

Other attractive cities

There is a most sought after small picturesque city, which is suitable for students and academics called Lund. It is a beautiful blend of the old and the new, restraint and energy, where students and scientists are most welcome.

More so, Uppsala brings forth history both in terms of age and rich young culture and diversity by virtue of its established university coupled by other historical and modern establishments.

Other cities such as Västerås and Linköping that can be considered small cities provide cheap accommodation to its residents and continue to be described in words as good for raising children and providing excellent health care services and a steady economy. These cities attract families who are looking for peace but still need some touch with city life.

Whether you are looking for an active metropolitan area, a university city with a rich heritage, all these places share a guarantee on the Swedish way of life: balance between environmental issues and high standard of living as well as strong community ties.
