Since 1987, researchers have followed thousands of older residents in Kungsholmen through the “Swedish National study on Aging and Care in Kungsholmen” (SNAC-K). The results show that today’s 80-year-olds are healthier than previous generations, but health varies depending on where in the district they live.
The study, conducted by Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm Gerontology Research Center, and Stockholm University, has created an extensive database for research on ageing and care of older people.
