For New Resident

Come and Experience Easy Living in Rauma!

High-level services, compact city structure, and versatile hobby and leisure opportunities are the strengths of our city. We want our economy to remain strong and vibrant so that our residents can safely build a life here.

We who live in Rauma are extremely lucky because our rich history and city culture, Unesco World Heritage Sites and the proximity of the sea provide us with a unique living environment.

When you explore the city, you will probably come across our distinctive dialect. Our slogan ‘ol niingon gotonas’, which translates to ‘make yourself at home’, sums up our essential outlook on life. We want our guests and new residents to feel at home.

We hope you’ll come and explore the relaxing surroundings and fall in love with our lovely town. You should also visit the city’s service centre Pyyrman (in Valtakatu 2, tel. +358 2 834 5000), the staff can give you more information about the diverse services in Rauma.
