Districts Of Sweden
Municipalities in Sweden are in some rare cases divided into smaller districts or urban districts, and are sometimes assigned administrative boards responsible for certain areas of governance in their respective areas. These districts are not specified by national Swedish law, but rather are created by individual municipalities, and thus the Swedish names of these districts vary greatly from municipality to municipality, including kommundelar, stadsdelar, stadsdelområden, primärområden, or stadsdelsnämndsområden. The degree of administrative autonomy of these districts similarly varies greatly, but is normally very limited. On 1 January 2016 a new form of division of Sweden was introduced. This division is called registration districts (). These are used for certain administrative purposes by some national authorities, such as land ownership and statistics. This is not the same as the ''urban districts'' which are divisions held by some municipalities. Stockholm Overview ...

It ends in Helsingborg in Sweden, at the port for the ferry to Helsingør in Denmark. The route intersects with European route E6 just outside Helsingborg, which continues to Trelleborg on the southern coast of Sweden. History and naming The Inte ...

Within these areas there are, for example, public acts of violence, open drug dealing, and people showing "open discontent against society".
