the population
Age distribution
Population 2025 from Statistics Sweden for the statistical area (DeSO) covering Garphyttan, 1,652 inhabitants in total. The locality itself has 1,602 inhabitants. A statistical area follows no locality boundary, so the figures describe the area around the locality, not the locality alone.
