Open data for DeSO – Demographic Statistical Areas
DeSO is stable and does not change over time, but it is possible that the areas will be divided up in future if they grow too large population-wise. If any changes are made to county or municipal breakdowns, the DeSO boundaries will follow.

In a review of the DeSO boundaries in February 2020, in which various corrections were made, some areas were also adjusted. The change concerns the municipality of Karlskoga, in which 1883A0010 and 1883A0020 were eliminated and merged into a new area 1883A0030.
The DeSO breakdown is available in the national reference system SWEREF99TM. The format is Geopackage which can be opened with the most common GIS programs.
