Biskopsgården (literally, "Bishop Manor") is a district (stadsdelsnämndsområde) in Gothenburg Municipality, in western Sweden.
[3] In its December 2015 report, Police in Sweden placed the district in the most severe category of urban areas with high crime rates.
The employment rate is 56%, which is low compared to Gothenburg but slightly higher than vulnerable areas Bergsjön and Angered.
Further development of Biskopsgården will need to reduce the isolated nature of the area to more closely integrate it with the rest of the city.
The Live-good process was started in 1993, a unique development forum, with the purpose of improving the district for the resident.
The vision of the Live-good process is to have attractive preschool/school, better marketing, safety, own supply, good housing, and collaboration and accommodation dialogue.
[6] The district has three large business squares, Länsmanstorget, Vårväderstorget and Friskväderstorget that are natural meeting places for the residents.
Biskopsgården have large planned neighbor areas used as natural meeting places for residents.
The district has a geographical central location, with three tram services that connect the area with the city centre.
In South and North Biskopsgården there are two properties with housing and daytime activities for older children.
A low point was on 18 March 2015 when two men shot into a restaurant with assault rifles, killing two and injuring ten.
[8] Both the targets and perpetrators were involved in large-scale drug crime, save for a murdered bystander.
