Living here
Immeln is a built-up area at the southern tip of the lake Immeln in Östra Göinge municipality in Skåne, with just over 300 inhabitants. The lake is large and is a couple of minutes' walk away for most people. Östra Göinge's main town is a quarter of an hour away by car, Malmö an hour and three quarters and Göteborg three and a half hours.
Services in the town are few but present. The restaurant and the campsite with hostel are both a couple of minutes' walk away, and within the town there are also the museum Svart Granit and a tennis club. Within three kilometres there are a playground and Folkets hus. A petrol station and a swimming pool, on the other hand, are at a bike or car distance, and a school, a church and a café require a car. The railway is far away. The nearest larger neighbouring town is Arkelstorp, with just under eight hundred inhabitants, which is at a bike or car distance. The plots are roomy.
The area around the town is older than the country as a whole: just over one in four inhabitants is over sixty-five and one fifth are under twenty.
Immeln suits someone who wants to live by a large lake with a big plot and has a car for most things. Someone who wants a shop, a school and a train within walking distance will have to look elsewhere.
