the population
Age distribution
Population 2025 from Statistics Sweden for the statistical area (DeSO) covering Älvdalen, 2,199 inhabitants in total. The locality itself has 1,871 inhabitants. A statistical area follows no locality boundary, so the figures describe the area around the locality, not the locality alone.
driving timeFrom here and away
Modelled car route (MOTIS), not a navigator's ETA — the figures run systematically high but are comparable between localities. Destinations not listed are more than six hours away.
