the population
Age distribution
Population 2025 from Statistics Sweden for the statistical area (DeSO) covering Eskelhem, 1,704 inhabitants in total. The locality itself has 134 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
