Danderyd Municipality (Swedish:Danderyds kommun[ˈdânːdɛˌryːd]ⓘ) is amunicipality north ofStockholm inStockholm County in east centralSweden. It is one of the smallest municipalities of Sweden, but the most affluent. Its seat is located inDjursholm and it is located withinStockholm urban area.
The "old" rural municipality Danderyd was split up during the early 20th century, when Djursholm and Stocksund broke away in 1901 and 1910 respectively. Since 1971 Danderyd Municipality is reunified in approximately the old boundaries. The population in 2019 was 32,857.[3] The four districts making up Danderyd are: Danderyd,Djursholm,Stocksund andEnebyberg.
The population in Danderyd Municipality is among the most affluent in the country, having the highest medianincome per capita.[4] One of the reasons for this is the high price on real estate, which in turn is partially due to a restrictive policy on new developments by the municipality council.
The high income of the population has enabled the municipality to maintain a relatively low rate of taxation, but a government redistribution scheme intended to transfer money from socioeconomically advantaged municipalities to those less well-off along with financial mismanagement has caused tax rises and expenditure reductions in recent years.[5]
Danderyd Municipality also has the highest share (57.0%) of highly educated persons (Statistics Sweden definition: persons with post-secondary education that is three years or longer) in the country.[6]
