About Lomma

Here are some facts about the town where I live. (I got the information from the municipal government):

Lomma municipality
The municipality, situated in the west of Skåne on the coast of Öresund , was formed in the 1960s when the small market town of Lomma was merged with the large rural district of Flädie. In January 2009 the population amounted to about 20,450 inhabitants. Prominent features include good housing standards and the nearness to Öresund which affords ample opportunities for a rich outdoor life.


Population
The municipality has three population centres: Bjärred with 9,250 inhabitants, Lomma with 9,700 and Flädie with about 240 inhabitants. The remaining 1,300 inhabitants live either in one of the villages of Fjelie, Önnerup, Lilla Lomma and Alnarp or in the outlying rural areas.


There is considerable commuter activity from Lomma: about 6,700 of the inhabitants work in other municipalities, chiefly in Malmö or Lund, and about 2,600 people from other areas commute to work in Lomma.


Transport
It takes about 15-20 minutes to drive to Malmö from the different parts of the municipality. Public transport is well developed with frequent bus connections with Malmö and Lund. The travelling time Lomma-Malmö, Lomma-Lund and Bjärred-Lund is 20-25 minutes. The distance Lomma-Malmö is 8 kilometres , Lomma-Lund 10 km , Bjärred-Lund 10 km and Bjärred-Malmö 15 km .

Watch this tourism video about Lomma. I think they took every single angle of the town for this, because it really isn't that big.

For those totally excited about the district of Lomma, there is more info on Wikipedia here, though it is five years old now.
