the population
Age distribution
Population 2025 from Statistics Sweden for the 4 statistical areas (DeSO) covering Norberg, 5,313 inhabitants in total. The locality itself has 4,387 inhabitants. A statistical area follows no locality boundary, so the figures describe the area around the locality, not the locality alone.
