    Description

    In 2023, approximately 988,943 people lived in Stockholm, making it not only the capital, but also the biggest city in Sweden. The second biggest city, Gothenburg (Göteborg) had about half as many inhabitants, with about 596,840 people. Move to the citySweden is a country with a very high urbanization rate, the likes of which is usually only seen in countries with large uninhabitable areas, such as Australia, or in nations with very little rural landscape and agrarian structures, like Cuba. So why do so few Swedes live in rural areas, even though based on total area, the country is one of the largest in Europe? The total population figures are the answer to this question, as Sweden has only about 10.3 million inhabitants as of 2018 – that’s only 25 inhabitants per square kilometer. Rural exodus or just par for the course?It is no mystery why most Swedes flock to the cities: Jobs, of course. Over 65 percent of Sweden’s gross domestic product is generated by the services sector, and agriculture only contributes about one percent to the GDP. Employment mirrors this, with 80 percent of the workforce being deployed in services, namely in foreign trade, telecommunications, and manufacturing, among other industries.

    About this dataset

    Context

    The dataset tabulates the Sweden town population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Sweden town across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

    Key observations

    In 2023, the population of Sweden town was 420, a 0.96% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Sweden town population was 416, an increase of 1.46% compared to a population of 410 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Sweden town increased by 97. In this period, the peak population was 420 in the year 2023. The numbers suggest that the population has not reached its peak yet and is showing a trend of further growth. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

    Description

    In 2023, the share of urban population in Sweden remained nearly unchanged at around 88.74 percent. Still, the share reached its highest value in the observed period in 2023. The urban population refers to the share of the total population living in urban centers. Each country has their own definition of what constitutes an urban center (based on population size, area, or space between dwellings, among others), therefore international comparisons may be inconsistent.Find more key insights for the share of urban population in countries like Greenland and Faroe Islands.

    Description

    Stockholm is the Capital of Sweden and in 2023, close to 985,000 people lived in the municipality. Since 2010, the population there has been growing consistently. While more people are moving to Stockholm, the city area is not growing at the same speed, leading the population density to increase as well. Forecasts for the city expect continuous growth of population over the next forty years.

    Economy

    In Stockholm, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita was around 734,000 Swedish kronor in 2021. That was much higher than the average GDP per capita in all of Sweden with around 517,000 SEK in 2021. Though it must be noted that living costs are very high in the city and have been increasing in the last years. For example, the average rent per square meter in Stockholm has been rising every single year.

    Employment A high majority of people living in Stockholm have a workplace. The employment rate in Stockholm is at 73.6 percent as of 2021.  The sector with the highest number of employees in Stockholm is professional, scientific, technical, and administrative activities, followed by wholesale and retail trade.

    About this dataset

    Context

    The dataset tabulates the Sweden town population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Sweden town across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

    Key observations

    In 2022, the population of Sweden town was 13,254, a 0.29% decrease year-by-year from 2021. Previously, in 2021, Sweden town population was 13,292, an increase of 0.31% compared to a population of 13,251 in 2020. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2022, population of Sweden town decreased by 446. In this period, the peak population was 14,232 in the year 2013. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

    Description

    Demographic statistics — DESO is a nationwide classification created by Statistics Sweden that entered into force in January 2018. DESO divides Sweden into 5,984 areas with between 700 and 2,700 inhabitants at the start. The division follows the county and municipal boundaries. DESO does not have names or names, but is described with a code with nine unique positions. The first four consist of the county and municipality code and point out the county and the municipality in which the area is located. The fifth position indicates the category in which the area belongs to A, B or C. A is areas that are mostly outside larger population concentrations or agglomerations. B are areas that are mostly located in population concentrations or agglomerations but are not a central city. Category C is the areas that are mostly located in the municipality’s central city. The following three positions consist of a sequential number that sorts the areas geographically. This sorting is based on the categories and starts in the south and continues north. The last position is a reserve location that will be used in case a DESO in the future needs to be split. A DESO can only occur in one place.

    Description

    The Swedish capital Stockholm has the largest population of the five Nordic capitals with 2.46 million inhabitants. This is unsurprising as Sweden also is the Nordic country with the largest population. The capital area of Copenhagen is slightly larger than that of Helsinki, whereas Iceland's capital Reykjavik had the smallest population with 244,000 inhabitants. Oslo's rapid population decline in 2024 is explained by only the numbers for Oslo municipality being reported.

Description

In 2023, approximately 988,943 people lived in Stockholm, making it not only the capital, but also the biggest city in Sweden. The second biggest city, Gothenburg (Göteborg) had about half as many inhabitants, with about 596,840 people. Move to the citySweden is a country with a very high urbanization rate, the likes of which is usually only seen in countries with large uninhabitable areas, such as Australia, or in nations with very little rural landscape and agrarian structures, like Cuba. So why do so few Swedes live in rural areas, even though based on total area, the country is one of the largest in Europe? The total population figures are the answer to this question, as Sweden has only about 10.3 million inhabitants as of 2018 – that’s only 25 inhabitants per square kilometer. Rural exodus or just par for the course?It is no mystery why most Swedes flock to the cities: Jobs, of course. Over 65 percent of Sweden’s gross domestic product is generated by the services sector, and agriculture only contributes about one percent to the GDP. Employment mirrors this, with 80 percent of the workforce being deployed in services, namely in foreign trade, telecommunications, and manufacturing, among other industries.
