Stockholm City Centre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stockholm City Centre (Innerstaden) is the city centre of Stockholm in Sweden. The entire city of Stockholm is also the centre of the Stockholm Metropolitan Area.

Stockholm City Centre is divided into 21 districts, which are in turn organized into five boroughs: Katarina-Sofia borough, Kungsholmen borough, Maria-Gamla stan borough, Norrmalm borough and Östermalm borough.

The border between the historical provinces of Uppland and Södermanland splits Stockholm City Centre in two parts. In the northern, Upplandian, part lives 179,185 people on an area of 28.05 km², which gives a density of 6,388.06/km². The same data for the southern, Södermanlandian, part is: 103,646 on 7.44 km² = 13,930.91/km². This border is purely historical and has no administrative significance whatsoever.
