Uppsala is one of the major cities in Sweden and is considered to be a student city. No wonder why: it has “Universitas Regia Ubsaliensis”, big university dating back to glorious middle ages.
Also it is close to Stockholm (capital of Sweden), so a lot of people live here and commute to Stockholm every day.
It is quite vibrant city (in swedish perspective) and changes all the time.
This picture just proves it, with cranes on the left building new houses and facilities. There is a lot of them right now in Uppsala and it is bound to be more.
