Danmark

Danmark has been a built-up area in Uppsala municipality since 2015 and is a church village in Danmark parish, with just under four hundred and fifty inhabitants. Uppsala is a quarter of an hour away by car and Stockholm about an hour. The city is just under two kilometres away, and Sävja, with almost ten thousand inhabitants, just over two.

Everyday life is close at hand in large part. The church is a couple of minutes' walk away, and the school is within walking distance but not close. Danmarks skola and Uppsävjaskolan are within three kilometres, as are a hypermarket, ICA Maxi Gnista, six petrol stations, six playgrounds, Burger King and Max. Most people live about two kilometres from the nearest grocery shop, and the railway station is just over four kilometres away. Linnés Hammarby, a museum, is also within three kilometres.

Forest and farmland lie close up against the houses, and water within walking distance but not close. Industry is about a kilometre away, and a power line is near many houses.

Associational life is the community hall, the church, the sports club Danmarks IF and the pensioners' association PRO Vaksala-Danmark. The surrounding area has many children and few older people: just over a quarter are under twenty and only an eighth over sixty-five. Uppsala municipality has a high share of people with post-secondary education.

Danmark suits families with children who want to live in the countryside but close to Uppsala's range of services. Anyone who wants a train or a shop within walking distance should expect to cycle.
