People in Malmö
Introduction
Malmö is a very multi-cultural city. You can find people from many different countries with different religions and traditions. This variety makes Malmö a very interesting and fun city to live in. We talked to 10 different people in Malmö in all different ages. They all said that the best thing about Malmö is all the variety. No one is the same here. You can find Christians, Muslims, atheists and so on… We interviewed people from many different countries, for example people who originally are from Iraq and Iran.
All people we talked to said that the segregation was something positive but you could notice that some of them had a problem with it, even if they didn’t say it out loud. So a problem is that the people in Malmö are split up, the immigrants and the swedes.
So it’s not only good things about Malmö. A lot of the people agreed that there is too much criminality in Malmö and they found the shooting in Malmö very scary. One person even said that she never goes out alone in Malmö during the evenings because she’s too scared.
But disregarding the criminality, all the people agreed that Malmö is a great city with a great mix of cultures, religions and tradition.
