How the score is counted

Each part is a rank among all of Stockholms stad's streets; the parts are weighted and the total ranked again – the same measure for every street, so any two can be compared and shared. It is VERA PI's own ranking, not a price and not a valuation.

How VERA PI measures the sun

Solläge is the number of hours of direct sun on a clear day on 21 March on a building's sunniest facade – at least 8 metres long – at its middle floor. Winter is the same on 21 December; on 21 September the trees count, in leaf. Neighbouring buildings, the terrain and the trees cast the shade. Medians are of the residential buildings; the lists name apartment buildings only – houses and terraced houses count in the medians but are never shown one by one.

The sun's path: NOAA's solar calculation. The buildings' heights: Stockholms stad's 3D buildings (the city planning office, SBK) – only derived values are shown, hours and rounded heights. Streets, addresses and trees: © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0. Calculated 21 October 2026.

The associations behind the doors

Of the 7 houses on Gaveliusgatan with an address, 3 are owned by housing associations (bostadsrättsföreningar), matched in Bolagsverket's register of 19 October 2026. None of them has a public annual report for 2025 or later yet; where an older one exists, it is kept below as history. For 4 houses no association was found: the sources do not say who owns them.

Figures from each association's own annual report (årsredovisning), as linked from the estate agencies' listings or the association's own site. Only reports for 2025 or later count as current; older years are history and dated. Names and organisation numbers from Bolagsverket's register, 19 October 2026. «Matched by name»: the association's name is the property's designation, and no report or listing has confirmed the address yet. Tap a house for its own page.

Gaveliusgatan in numbers

The street set against Stockholm and the whole of Sweden. Each figure is for the finest area its publisher reports – the street's own statistical area, Södermalm or the district of Södermalm – and says which. Nothing is modelled.

Prices and rents

One homes in ten here are bostadsrätter – you buy a share in the association that owns the building, and pay it a monthly fee. The rest are rented, through the city's queue or second hand.

Median sale price of a bostadsrätt, SEK thousand – Stockholm county, the finest level Statistics Sweden publishes; not the street. SCB, BO0501C.

What isn't public. Sweden has no open register of what bostadsrätter sell for, so no sale price is shown for a single address. A national register of bostadsrätter is coming – Lantmäteriet starts collecting from the associations in 2027 – but it records the flat, its holder and any pledges, not what it sold for. Asking prices come from the agencies' own adverts and are shown as asking prices, never as sales.
