the population
Age distribution
Population 2025 from Statistics Sweden for the 3 statistical areas (DeSO) covering Östhammar, 5,082 inhabitants in total. The locality itself has 4,986 inhabitants. A statistical area follows no locality boundary, so the figures describe the area around the locality, not the locality alone.
driving timeFrom here and away
