Tensta
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tensta is a suburban borough (stadsdelsområde) of Stockholm, characterised by high unemployment[citation needed] and a high concentration of immigrants.
Modern Tensta, with its Plattenbau-style concrete apartment buildings, was constructed in the 1960s. Like nearby Rinkeby and Hjulsta, it was part of the Million Programme, and became known nationwide in the late 1960s. This was partially because lots of people moved in when the area was still a construction site, and it took years before the metro station opened.
In 2005 the Swedish politician Nalin Pekgul decided to move from Tensta with her family because of what she described as lack of security.[1]
