Abstract
The purpose of this report is to examine if social risks are an urban phenomenon or if it also occurs in smaller Swedish communities. Therefore, events in two small municipals were analyzed. The report also aims to examine if risk and vulnerability analysis is an appropriate tool for smaller municipals to work with social risks. The analysis shows that social risks are present also in smaller municipals and that they therefore should consider these in order to increase community safety. Further, the analysis shows that risk and vulnerability analyzes are partly a suitable tool for smaller municipals to work with social risks
