Bråbacka is a town in Tibro municipality in Västergötland, located at the southern end of the lake Örlen north-east of Tibro in Ransberg parish. The area was delimited as a small locality in 2015 and classified as a town in 2020. Tibro can be reached in about ten minutes by car, Göteborg is two and a half hours away and Stockholm four and a half.
The lake Örlen is a couple of minutes' walk from the houses, and the bathing place is within walking distance but not close. By the lake there are Caravan Club Örlenbadet and Örlenbadets pizzeria. The school, Ransbergs skola, is within walking distance but not close, while the grocery shop is a few kilometres away and requires a bike or car. Ransbergs kyrka and the parish hall bring the district together, and Tibro Motorstadion is another meeting place for those who like motor sport.
The neighbours are Fagersanna, a little over a kilometre away, and Tibro. The forest is on the doorstep, and the train is only far away.
The surrounding area has an even age profile, with about one in four in each age group.
The place suits those who want to live by a Västergötland forest lake with a campsite and a pizzeria close by and Tibro ten minutes away. Those who want a train or a shop within walking distance will have to look elsewhere.
