Lima, Sweden

Lima is a place (Tätort) in the southern Swedish province of Dalarnas län and the historical province of Dalarna.

The village is located on Västerdalälven about 35 kilometres northwest of Malung, the central village of the municipality. In 2010, the village had 398 inhabitants and was considered a Tatort, but subsequently lost this status due to too great a distance in residential development according to the Tatort definition. The somewhat separate northern parts of the former Tatort on both sides of the river (Husom/Torgås, Sörnäs) have since been listed as two independent Småorters. As of the end of 2018, Lima again has more than 200 inhabitants (212 to be exact).

Riksväg 66 runs through the village, and Länsväg W 1046 leads to the opposite side of Västerdalälven. Lima had a station on the disused and dismantled Limedsforsen-Särna Järnväg railway line, a continuation of Västerdalsbanan.

Lima has a school and a polyclinic. It was until 2006 the seat of the parish Lima församling (formerly socken), but then merged into the current Lima-Transtrands församling with headquarters in Transtrand, just under 20 kilometers to the north.
