  • The suburbs of Stockholm are not very interesting, but perhaps just interesting enough for you to watch a 8 min video about them. I hope you enjoy it ^^

    The suburbs of Stockholm are indeed an interesting mix. And yes that feeling of riding the tube all the way across town to step out in a place looking much the same as from where one left is always an interesting feeling. Also fun how the city is a bit oddly arranged, like there are high density housing scattered about a bit everywhere, surrounded by low density housing filling in the gaps.
    Also sad that we are loosing our forested areas, from the outside they seem fine, until one takes 4 steps in and notice how a new housing area has been built smack in the middle of the forest, turning it into this thin strip...
    But yes, outside of the city center there often is little to see. Unless one wants to go on a tour of the largest art exhibition in town and visit every subway station to look at their unique art installations. Or perhaps take a look at the Sweden Solar System, however then one has to go the way to Kiruna to have seen it all, but at least it starts in Stockholm.

    I was in Stockholm a couple of weeks ago, after taking the train in from Copenhagen, and I was surprised at the many apartment buildings lining the countryside, instead of single family housing. But I think you do a good job of not only showing a lot of single family homes in your video, but you also explain why so many apartment houses do exist in the suburbs.

      As someone who lives in Atlantic Canada I would completely agree. The convenience of being able to easily bike, walk or hop on a quick bus ride to get something to eat or some groceries while for the most part avoiding single family suburbia that expands in all directions where every road leads to more nothingness, this is a big improvement imo.
      Of course both single family suburbia and dense housing like most of the housing we see in this video are important but dense housing is something we really aren't utilizing very well in my city until very recently.

      I'm not Swedish but I live in Stockholm and based on the video I can give you the answer to question 3: Nope. At 5:27 you see him walking around and recording in Tensta, which is probably the worst, most crime-ridden place in Stockholm, definitely top 3 worst areas.
      As for cheese, there are four categories of Swedish cheese in my view:
      - cheap yellow cheese like Hushållsost and Gouda, probably the most common, sold in blocks (it seems only immigrants buy pre-sliced cheese here) and then cut using an osthyvel
      - fancier yellow cheese like Präst or Greve, and particularly the king of this category, Västerbottensost. The first two taste like Maasdamer with a hint of Cheddar, the last one is closer to Parmesan; these are always sold in triangular blocks and cut using an osthyvel
      - blue cheese, Ädelost, surprisingly popular to the point where it is even a popular flavour of cream cheese
      - Kvarg, if you count it as cheese; it technically is cheese but feels and is used more like greek yoghurt

    I think you’re wrong about these suburbs “not being that interesting.” For people interested in architecture and history they are very interesting.
    First there are the early suburbs built during the turn of the last century. Often as housing for workers (Sundbyberg), middle class (Enskede, Mälarhöjden, Bromma) and the wealthier (Djursholm, Saltsjöbaden). These have lots of interesting and beautiful buildings and areas (even though the author of this video seems to have a massive class chip on his shoulder).
    Also failed to explain the history of why and how these different areas were build the way they were built. For example how the socialist government of Stockholm used the expansion of the subway system to expand their communal housing programme (miljonprogrammet) and ownership by the socialist-controlled public housing companies.

    Good video, but you exaggerated the wealth of the people living in the wealthy suburbs. Sure some houses are crazy expensive, but a lot of people bought them before they got that expensive or inherited them from parents or grandparents who did. To have a chauffeur or helicopter would be extremely rare, rather the mpst expensive things these people indulge in would be be things like a pool, trip to Thailand or BMW.

    I'm leaving Sweden tomorrow after 3 months of touring here. Stockholm sucks ass outside gamla stan. Västerås even worse. Västkusten is probably the best of Sweden (if you can afford to buy). But pretty much all of Sweden is the same, all the young people hate it because there's nothing to do, bars suck, and everyone is passive aggressive. The nature on the other side is amazing and i love it which is the only good side of Sweden to be honest. People complain about inmigrants but they are the ones driving buses, cleaning and opening restaurants, things that Swedes don't want to do.

But, this video seems more of a deterrent to moving for me. 🫤 Maybe a video on sexual promiscuity in each suburb could help with decision making. 😅😂 All joking aside, I definitely enjoyed this episode. All romanticism stripped away, raw, unedited versions of really real life to expect as an expat in Sweden. ❤😊

    I thought social class wasn't a thing in Sweden so I can't understand why you would feel like a "peasant" in the posh suburbs of Stockholm. I thought everyone was equal in the utopia that is Sweden. If I had the means I would rather live somewhere nice like Tallkrogen - Enskede and put up with snobbish neighbours rather than living in a cramped flat in a less wealthy suburb.
