Skärblacka
Skärblacka is a locality situated in Norrköping Municipality, Östergötland County, Sweden with 4,059 inhabitants in 2010. In everyday use, the town is known as simply ''Blacka''. Until 1971, the town was the administrative centre of Skärblacka municipality, and had a relatively well built-up centre, with an ice rink, swimming pool and secondary school. Riksdag elections Skärblacka used to be a strongly left-wing area with an industrial heritage. Throughout the early 21st century, however, the vote share for the Social Democrats fell substantially, which saw the right-leaning parties gain more votes than the leftist ones in 2018 after the village had a 40-point left-wing cushion just 16 years prior. Unlike many other industrial villages in the greater region surrounding Skärblacka, the voting population has remained at steady levels ever since it entered Norrköping Municipality in the early 1970s. Between 1973 and 2018 Skärblacka went from being 46 points more left-wing ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
