This picturesque town of approximately 14,175 residents boasts a rich history, being named after the country of Sweden in honor of the many Swedish settlers who once called it home. With its charming Main Street lined with quaint shops and cafes, Sweden offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.
