i live in turku-åbo which is one of the bigger cities, and is the only one of them near the swedish speakers. most of the swedish speakers in finland are concentrated on the south and west coast, where there are some entirely-swedish and mostly-swedish towns. in central finland and northern finland there isn't even swedish on the street signs anymore. but since åbo is a big city, it's mostly finnish even though many of the towns nearby aren't. my better half's mother lives in a place where the majority are swedish speakers, though.
