Bureå
This pocket-sized Swedish village on the water sits between Skellefteå and Umeå in Västerbotten County, and is historically associated with the Bure kinship. Once a pronounced industrial settlement, it has since shifted toward a commuter community, with the larger city of Skellefteå a short distance to the north and mountain terrain accessible in the wider region.
