This type of area is characterized according to the police's classification of low socio-economic status where the criminals have an impact on the local community - for example through threats and extortion or violence.

The police believe that the situation in these areas is serious.

Our goal is not to have vulnerable areas within the municipality at all, says Staffan Jansson.

In total, there are about 60 areas throughout the country on the list of vulnerable areas.

The sites have been divided into three categories: exposed area, risk area and particularly exposed area, the most serious category.
