Living here
Fästa is a small locality (småort) in Lidköping municipality in Västra Götaland county with 53 inhabitants. Within three kilometres there is not much service: a school with a preschool in Sjölunda, a café called Skogshyddan, a couple of care homes for older people with Tolsjöhemmet as an example, four playgrounds and a park. There is no grocery shop, health centre or railway station here, and for those you have to take the car.
The area around the locality has a mixed population. About one in four inhabitants is over sixty-five and as many are under twenty. Fästa suits someone who is looking for calm in the countryside, with a school for the children within cycling distance, and who can live with a car for more or less all errands. Anyone who wants shops and public transport close by should choose denser housing.
