According to Kronofogden, the number of debtors is declining for the fourth year in a row and not since 1991 has the number of debtors been so low.

In Dalarna, total debt has gradually decreased for each year since 2017. From just over SEK 1.8 million to a little over SEK 1.5 million. In addition, there have been about 1,000 fewer who are indebted to Kronofogden, compared to two years ago.

More men than women

There are more men than women who are indebted in the county and if you look at the past few years it has looked so earlier too. But Vansbro, Mora and Gagnef municipality are three that stand out. There, on average, women have had a larger debt than men in 2019.
