Runebergsplan on the map, drawn at the heights of the city's 3D model. No address in OpenStreetMap is on Runebergsplan – the buildings along it carry the numbers of the streets around it, so there are no houses of its own to walk.

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, Östermalm or the district of Norra innerstaden – and says which. Nothing is modelled.

The street's areas: Statistics Sweden's DeSO 0180C5050, 2,126 residents – in SCB's areas Engelbrekts kyrka. Incomes are means, so a few very large incomes pull them up; capital income includes gains on sales of shares and property.

Seven 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.

Brå: reported crime is not all crime – not every crime comes to the police's attention. Local figures go by where the crime happened and are set against the people who live there. Our note: a district full of theatres, restaurants, shops and stations can therefore show a high rate against few residents. In 2025, 12 % of reports in the Stockholm police region had no recorded municipality. Sources: Brå, reported offences; Stockholms stad, Trygghetsmätning 2026 (source).
2,126 people live in the street's area. 46 % of them are over fifty (Stockholm: 35 %), 27 % of the households have children, and of those aged 25–65, 59 % hold a university degree of three years or more (Stockholm: 47 %).
26 % of the residents here are 65 or over – against 17 % across Stockholm; the street's areas have fewer people aged 20–49.
