Dannemora is a built-up area and old mining village with 243 inhabitants in Östhammars municipality in Uppland, west of Österbybruk. The church lies a short way south-west of the mining village.
The railway is a couple of minutes' walk away for most people. The forest lies just across the road, and water and fields are also a couple of minutes' walk away. Most people live right next to a major road. The food shop and school are a cycle or car journey away, around two kilometres, and the railway station is nearly ten kilometres away. The nearest range of services is in Österbybruk, close by: pharmacy, bakery, library, building supplies shop, petrol station, preschools, hairdressers and car workshops. Four contaminated sites are registered in the village, the nearest a couple of minutes' walk from the centre.
It takes three quarters of an hour by car to Östhammar, and Stockholm is an hour and three quarters away. The nearest neighbouring villages are Österbybruk, Film and Upplanda.
The area around the village has an even age distribution: a little over a fifth is under twenty and a little over a quarter is over sixty-five. The village's associations include PRO Dannemora.
Dannemora suits someone who wants to live in an old mining village in the forest with Österbybruk next door. Anyone who works in Stockholm every day or wants a train nearby should expect long distances.
