Hear the commuters about moving to Kiruna: "No city you want to live in"

Kiruna municipality usually attracts many hiking lovers, snowmobile riders and hunting enthusiasts.

But if you are not interested in it, it can be difficult to want to live in the municipality - at least according to the commuters who SVT Norrbotten interviewed.

- If you are not so much for nature and slalom, it is not so damn fun, says Oscar Sundqvist from Boden.

"Kiruna is not a city you want to live in"

Many of those who commute to work work so-called seven-seven.

This means that you work seven days in a row and then be off for seven days in a row.

Oscar Sundqvist, from Boden, and Peter Martinsson, from Hammarstrand, have worked in this way for several years and thus belong to the group "fly-in fly-out".

Anders Jakobsson, from Stugön outside Östersund, however, eventually gave up and moved to Kiruna after several years of commuting.

- Kiruna is not a city you want to live in, he says.

So what would be required to move to Kiruna municipality?

Hear the three work commuters in the video above.

Oscar Sundqvist from Boden would rather commute over 300 km than move to Kiruna.
