Living here
Berg is a small locality in Uddevalla municipality in Västra Götaland County, with about 180 inhabitants on just under thirty-five hectares.
Most of it is in Ljungskile within cycling distance: a train station, two food shops, a health centre, pharmacy, library, three schools and two preschools, a gym, several cafés and a handful of restaurants. A cold-water bathhouse and two nature reserves are also part of it. Everyday services are thus available without the locality having them itself.
The area around the locality is child-friendly for a rural area: one in four is under twenty and as many are over sixty-five. The municipality has unemployment somewhat above the national level, but more people with post-secondary education than usual.
Berg suits those who want to live in a small place and still have a train, shop and healthcare within cycling distance. Those who want services at the door will have to find them in Ljungskile.
