It is a metropolitan city of over one million people. Like most European capitals, Stockholm offers a rich cultural life. In addition to being an exciting place to live, Stockholm is also a relatively safe and clean city. Crime rates are among the lowest in the world while the standard of living is among the highest.
Public transportation is efficient, safe, and inexpensive.
T he weather is not as cold as most people imagine. Stockholm has a coastal climate similar to that of Boston. The city manages to temper the exciting pulse of urban life with frequent excursions into nature. A ten minute walk through downtown Stockholm can take you from a crowded cafe to the shoreline of the Baltic Sea.
