About the place

Living here

Östantorp is a small settlement (småort) in Oskarshamn municipality in Kalmar county, with about 55 inhabitants. It is a small place in the countryside.

Within three kilometres there is only a bathing place. A food shop, school and other services are further away, so a car is a prerequisite.

The area around the settlement has many older people: about three in ten are over sixty-five and the same number are between forty-five and sixty-four, while just under a fifth are under twenty.

The place suits those who want to live in seclusion with a bathing place nearby. It does not suit those who want services or neighbours of their own age nearby.

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