– In general, if the economy is rare, children often take responsibility for the family's financial situation. They can do this by refusing to take a day off, make phone calls or ask for expensive clothes. They are aware of themselves as an expense, says Stina Fernqvist, researcher in sociology at Uppsala University, at the agency Siren News.
Hammarö, Lomma, Knivsta and Lerum Municipalities with the lowest proportion of children, 1.9%, have low income standards. Danderyd is the municipality where the highest proportion of children in the 0 to 17 age group has a high income level. The figure is 84%. In the case of border communities where commuting is common, statistics on income standards should be interpreted with caution. The figures are based on income and tax register data, which means that for people residing in Sweden but working in another country, income is largely absent.
