The planning of new residential property in Örkelljunga is extensive and includes new areas with villas near a few of the lakes in the municipality, as well as senior housing in the central parts of the city. Örkelljunga is a popular region for both recreational purposes (popular amongst wealthy Danish people) and families commuting to cities such as Helsingborg. The shortage of housing in the municipality means low vacancies in the property Hagtornet that Svenska Bostadsfonden acquired during the spring of 2008.Hörby
