According to the radio, the new areas are Grantorp / Visättra in Flemingsberg in Huddinge municipality and Fisksätra in Nacka, which are now assessed as vulnerable areas, and Valsta in Sigtuna, which is assessed as a risk area.
All are located in Stockholm County.
Rannebergen in Gothenburg and Klockaretorpet in Norrköping, on the other hand, leave the list, where the development has been positive.
In addition, three areas leave the most serious category of particularly vulnerable areas and are instead classified as risk areas, which is the intermediate level of the three classifications.
According to Ekot, this is about Karlslund in Landskrona, Araby in Växjö and an area around Tynnered in Gothenburg.
Positive trends
The police authority has not yet published its updated list and does not want to comment on the development of the individual areas.
According to a government assignment, the police must report an updated list no later than 1 December this year.
- We do not see any major fluctuations between the years, when we make these assessments.
But overall, we see positive trends, that it is going in a positive direction.
There are areas that have a negative development, but overall we see positive tendencies, says Linda H Staaf, head of the intelligence unit at the police's national operational department.
The police's first list of vulnerable areas was published in 2015, as a way to facilitate the distribution of resources in the country.
According to the police, the situation increases "the conditions for creating security and safety for the public".
60 areas 2019
In the latest situation picture published in 2019, 60 areas were on the list, with a total population of around 550,000 people.
This corresponds to approximately 5 percent of Sweden's population, but according to the police, a large part of the problems surrounding the serious violent settlements are based in the areas.
For example, it is eight times as common for lethal violence to occur in conflicts in the criminal environment in these areas compared to others, related to the size of the population, according to the Crime Prevention Council.
