Holiday-home areas

Statistics Sweden delineates holiday-home areas using a combination of geocoded registers and geospatial information. The data on holiday-home areas can be freely downloaded as open geodata.

Holiday-home areas are built-up areas with at least 50 buildings that are classified as holiday homes. Holiday homes are defined as residential buildings without a registered population.

Holiday-home areas are represented as polygons with attribute information on number of holiday homes, land area and more. Data is updated once every five years.
