Shaking off low wealth redistribution levels and high income inequalities of the past, Sweden has entered the era of high inter-generational mobility. They are one of the affordable countries around the globe, have free healthcare and college education, inspiring parental leave, and the average person has one of the longest life expectancies. All these factors have a significant impact on engendering high social and economic mobility.
