Sweden's second-largest city on the Kattegat coast — anchored by Volvo (HQ since 1927) and a deep maritime-engineering economy. Haga (the 17th-century working-class district turned cafe core) and Linné are the dense walkable neighborhoods. Sweden has no formal DNV; freelance / self-employed residence permits are discretionary. Schengen. Roughly 20-25% cheaper than Stockholm on rent with sea-front access, the Liseberg amusement park (Scandinavia's biggest), and the Bohuslän archipelago immediately north.
