When someone with a PhD in mathematics chooses the best place to live, they naturally run the numbers. And Kalix became the obvious choice.
“I’ve been thinking about this for quite some time and even used my data analysis skills to find a great place to live. Kalix caught our attention as the best municipality in all of Sweden when it comes to balancing quality of life and housing prices.”
Whether you prefer an apartment in the town center with a view of the river, a house in a residential neighborhood, or a horse farm in the countryside—you can find it in Kalix. And on top of that, you get significantly more quality of life for your money than in many other municipalities. Of course, it all depends on what you’re looking for, but if you buy a home at the average price on an average salary in Kalix, it will cost you 10% of your income. In Gothenburg, for example, it would cost you 84% (based on 2023 data).
