The street

Birkagatan, as it stands.

Birkagatan is a residential street of about 480 m in Vasastaden, Stockholm stad (stadsdelsområde Norra innerstaden). OpenStreetMap draws 31 buildings within 25 m of its line, typically 6 floors high where the floors are mapped (30 of them).

What the buildings are

OpenStreetMap’s own tags – most Swedish buildings carry no use, so «not tagged» is common and says nothing about the building.

Asking prices as the agencies publish them on their own websites, read by VERA PI every night (robots.txt and each site’s terms obeyed) – not sale prices, and not every agency: Hemnet’s and Booli’s terms forbid copying, and VERA PI does not use them; sites that forbid automated reading are not read. A home sold by two agencies can appear twice. The agency’s name only – never an agent’s or a seller’s.

Prices – kommun level

What VERA PI does not show here, and why

  • No individual sale. The price of a house or an owner-occupied flat sits in Lantmäteriet’s register of sale prices (fastighetsprisregistret), which is not open data; SCB publishes it as statistics by kommun and län, and those are the prices shown here. A bostadsrätt is a share in a housing association, not real property – its sales are in no public register at all (the figures for bostadsrätter are SCB’s statistics by län).
  • No prices below the kommun: SCB does not publish sale prices by stadsdel or DeSO. The night picture is coloured by the mean net income of each DeSO area, never by a price.
  • No property boundary, no address file and no building’s own record: Lantmäteriet’s open property, address and building data (high-value datasets, CC BY 4.0) are released only on an approved application, which VERA PI has not yet made.
  • No listing from Hemnet or Booli: their terms do not allow their listings to be copied, and VERA PI does not copy them – the asking prices shown are from the estate agencies’ own websites, labelled as asking.
  • No estimate for a home: without sale-level data an estimate would be a guess, and VERA PI does not publish guesses.
  • No price for this street: SCB publishes sale prices by kommun and län only, so the prices shown are Stockholm stad’s and Stockholms län’s – never the street’s, and no ranking of streets by price.
  • The buildings are OpenStreetMap’s outlines within 25 m of the street’s line, not an address register: Lantmäteriet’s address and building data are not yet open to VERA PI. A building on a corner counts for both streets.
