Two questions. A population of 5,600 sounds too big for Södra Sandby to be called "a village". Second, what says the climate is particularely cold there? Scania should have a milder climate than most other parts of Sweden.
Answer:[edit]
A village is is defined as a clustered human settlement or community, larger than a hamlet, but smaller than a town or city and are typically in rural areas (but not always). Södra Sandby is in a rural area, bus is easily accessible by an efficient bus system and by car. There are a few places to shop (grocery, post office, pizza shop, gas station, etc), but for mall shopping (and IKEA) you have to travel to Malmö. Lund is also nearby, with an impressive university as well as restaurants, shops, museums, etc.
As for the climate, the summers are warm (not unusual to see 80F), but they are short. The winters are fairly mild and they do not get a lot of snow, mostly rain, with limited daylight hours.
"Child friendly climate"?!?!?![edit]
From the article: Södra Sandy is known for its beautiful landscape and its child friendly climate.. Which exactly means, what? Are the temperatures or the humidity better for children here. It sounds very odd. --Muniswede 20:11, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
- I think it's more refering to the social climate, IE it's a good place to raise your children. --The monkeyhate 19:50, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
