Röylä
Röylä

Röylä (Finnish: [ˈrøy̯læ]; Swedish: Rödskog [ˈrø̂ːdskuːɡ], Finland Swedish: [ˈrøːdskuːɡ]) is a district of Espoo, Finland. It is located in the Pohjois-Espoo area, northern shores of the Lake Bodom. Röylä had 410 inhabitants at the turn of the year 2019–2020 and the average age of the residents is 56,6 years. The Swedish name Rödskog literally means "red forest", but it may be an abbreviation of the words rödjad skog, which means a "burn-clearing forest" for agricultural purposes.For the most part, Röylä consists of fields and forests. Many Stone Age settlements have been found in Röylä. The building stock of the area is almost completely detached houses. There are several small and smaller lakes in the western part of Röylä, such as Häkläjärvi, Sorvalampi, Hepolampi and Igelträsk. The eastern part of the narrow Lake Pitkäjärvi of Velskola also belongs to Röylä where only the northwestern part of Pitkäjärvi belongs to Velskola; the peninsulas protruding east from the northwest shore extend to the Röylä area according to the official district division.There is one Swedish-language school in Röylä, Rödskogs skola. Right next to the school is Snettans Farm. In addition, Röylä has several horse farms with riding schools. In the southern part of Röylä is Hovgård, originally founded as an officer's mansion. Röylän ja Bodomin Seudun Omakotiyhdistys ry, founded in 1971, operates in the region of Pohjois-Espoo.

Klaukkala
Klaukkala

Klaukkala (Finnish: [ˈklɑu̯ˌkːɑlɑ]; Swedish: Klövskog [ˈklø̂ːvskuːɡ], Finland Swedish: [ˈkløːvskuːɡ]) is the southern-most urban area (Finnish: taajama) of the Nurmijärvi municipality in Uusimaa, Finland, located near Lake Valkjärvi. It is the largest urban area in Nurmijärvi, and despite the fact that it officially has the status of a village, it is often mistakenly thought to be a separate town due to its size and structure. In the 2010s, Klaukkala's urban area grew to be part of the larger Helsinki urban area. Klaukkala has a population of over 20,000 and is the fastest-growing area of Nurmijärvi; almost half of the total population of the municipality lives in Klaukkala. Its population began to rise in the 1960s, when it surpassed the church village of Nurmijärvi. In the 1970s, Klaukkala also grew larger than Rajamäki, which until then was the largest of Nurmijärvi's villages. At that time, Klaukkala's population was over 2,500. Klaukkala has significant migration mainly from the Helsinki conurbation; being a rural village a half-hour's drive away from the Helsinki centre, it especially attracts families with children. Unfortunately, due to the enormous population growth, the village is also infamous for its growing traffic, which causes local problems at the mornings and afternoons.In the early 2000s, many detached houses were built in Klaukkala, but the situation has changed as up to three-quarters of the new houses are apartment, terraced and semi-detached houses.
