Oulunkylä

Oulunkylä (Swedish: Åggelby, also known as Ogeli) is a suburb and a neighbourhood of Helsinki, the capital of Finland.

It is located 6 kilometres (4 mi) north from the center of the city.

It consists of Patola, Veräjämäki and Veräjälaakso, and has a total area of 4.51 km2.

[1] For centuries, Oulunkylä was part of Helsingin pitäjä (now Vantaa).

[2] The modern Oulunkylä is largely constructed according to the zoning scheme of 1953 that transformed the neighbourhood from a villa community into an apartment building suburb.
