Housing

What about housing standard? Sweden, along with Denmark, has the highest housing standards in Europe - at a reasonable cost. Practically all housing in Sweden has been completely modernised to high standards.

Do I have to pay for household equipment? Usually not. Equipment such as refrigerators, freezers, kitchen cupboards and cookers are standard when the tenant or owner moves in.

How do Swedes live? 46% of households live in their own house, 54% live in large apartments as tenants or owners. The cost is comparatively low, normally about 1 million SEK* for a house, the average rent for a flat is 5,000 SEK* a month.

How easy is it to find somewhere to live in East Sweden? It is easy to find somewhere to live, even in town centres. If you choose to live in the countryside, travel times rarely exceed 15-30 minutes to work in town, via the well developed public transport network.
