About the place

Living here

Eklången is a small locality (småort) in Eskilstuna municipality in Södermanland county, with 64 residents. The locality has no place profile of its own, and within three kilometres neither a shop, a school, a church nor any other service shows up in our data. How far it is to Eskilstuna cannot be said.

The surrounding area is older than the rest of the country: just over one in four is a pensioner and one in three is between forty-five and sixty-four, while just under one in five is under twenty. Eskilstuna's unemployment is clearly above the national median, and the share of people with low economic standard is high.

Eklången suits someone who wants to live in an isolated spot and arranges all errands themselves. Anyone who wants services or many jobs nearby should look further.

Draft. Based on a place profile from Lantmäteriet, SCB, OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia and the municipality's register of associations. To be reviewed before publication.
