Skalborg is a southern neighbourhood of Aalborg.
"City Syd", a large
Skalborg is served by Skalborg railway station, located on the Randers–Aalborg railway line. Skalborg[1] is a district in the southern part of Aalborg approx. six kilometers south of Aalborg Centre. Skalborg's planning area is 8 km² and there are 6,628 (2009) inhabitants.[2] Skalborg was originally an independent village that arose around a collection of emigrant farms where today you find the intersection Nibevej-Hobrovej[3] Historically, the railway has also played a large role in the development of Skalborg, where a town formed in connection with Skalborg station.
In 2017, Aalborg Municipality decided to create an urban development plan for Skalborg[4], which has meant that large parts of the district have been renovated, e.g. (Grønnegården[5]), and that new residential areas such as Oasen[6], Sofiendal Enge[7] and Sofiendalen[8] has arisen. In short, Aalborg Municipality has a desire to transform Skalborg into a residential area to a greater extent than in 2017, and green areas and cycle paths are being established to support this plan.
Since 1992, there has also been a large and ongoing focus on retail and business in Skalborg. This is shown, for example, by a doubling of City Syd's area, as well as businesses along Indkildevej/Hobrovej.
