Davidsöya

Davidsöya (David's Island) is an island in the Stormöyene archipelago. It has a population of 44,000 with a population density of 25,900/km2. Davidsöya is known for its large proportion of recent and past immigrants, which is reflected in the large variety of religious buildings, restaurants and cultural amenities on the island. The Stormöyene government has attempted to emulate Singapore's "ethnic quota" policy to avoid enclaves from forming, but with limited success so far.

Geography
The island features gently undulating hills to the west, and three steep hills on its eastern shores. Garnisonsbacken(Garrison Hill) and Lilla/Stora Korgberget(Lesser/Greater Basket Mountain) are popular outing spots in the archipelago.

Transport
Ferries connect the island to Katteklippan, Gråskär, Hvidvand and Storöya. The only fixed ferry link to Frelseöya sails from Davidsöya ferry pier. A bridge connects the island to Gråskär.

Notable towns and neighbourhoods
Davidsöya Stad - The main commercial centre of Davidsöya. The main street features large department stores and imported goods centres, while the side streets and alleys are jam-packed with a myriad of restaurants. A unique feature of Davidsöya Stad are the many covered streets, where glass ceilings keep the sometimes harsh elements out.

Grusa - A neighbourhood of some notoriety, where various criminal gangs supposedly vie for dominion. Internationally speaking, however, the area has a comparatively low crime rate, and the location next to the nature park of Korgberget is attracting gentrification.
