Bagarmossen, Residential quarter in Skarpnäck district, Sweden.
Bagarmossen is a residential quarter in southeastern Stockholm with apartment buildings, parks, and walking paths throughout. The neighborhood mixes housing with open green spaces that break up the built environment.
The quarter was built in 1963 starting as a modern residential development. The original elevated metro station was replaced by an underground one in 1994.
The population of 10,914 residents represents a mix of backgrounds, with 33.3 percent of inhabitants coming from international origins as of 2009.
The neighborhood is connected to central Stockholm by the green metro line 17, making it easy to reach the city center. The extensive network of separate walking paths allows you to explore the quarter on foot without worrying about traffic.
The quarter was designed with a clever system that keeps pedestrian paths completely separate from vehicle roads. This separation was an innovative approach to residential planning when the neighborhood was first developed.
