Maalaiset haukkuvat kaupunkia

saisi kaupunkikin vähän nähdä vaivaa oman imagonsa eteen ja tuoda tilastot perseaukisten maalaisten osalta esille (kunnilla varmaan on hyvät tiedot toistenkin tiedoista)

Jyväskylä (IPA: ['jyʋæsˌkylæ]) is a city located in central Finland, 147 km from Tampere and 270 km from Helsinki, near the lakes Päijänne and Keitele. It is the center of the Region of Jyväskylä. Due to having been the site of many education-related "firsts" in Finland, it is known as a city of schools and the Athens of Finland, and is also famous for its many buildings designed by Alvar Aalto and for hosting Neste Rally Finland, which is part of the World Rally Championship. It is home of the annual Jyväskylä Arts Festival.

At the end of 2004, Jyväskylä had a population of 83,582, while the Region of Jyväskylä had 163,420 inhabitants. The leaders of Jyväskylä have long proposed that Jyväskylän maalaiskunta (the rural municipality of Jyväskylä), which has it's town hall, graveyard and beautiful church Taulumäen kirkko all located conveniently in central Jyväskylä, should unite with the city, but Jyväskylä's economic problems, almost as dire as maalaiskunta's, have been mentioned to be the reason for the insignificant willingness in Jyväskylän maalaiskunta to form a larger unit. However, the truth lies in the unwillingness of the maalaiskunta leaders to lose their well-paying jobs which give them good bribes as well. In many studies and social statistics Jyväskylä can be seen in the lists of socially most problematic Finnish cities, because maalaiskunta has no police station of it's own which means they all are included in the statistics, were they, crime would be 1/3 of the current level, which also makes a rapid municipal union unlikely. Many inhabitants of the region live in the surrounding municipalities, but use the services of Jyväskylä, from maalaiskunta, the drunk cell in the police station is the favorite. Thus the Jyväskylä region is often mentioned as a place of occupance. The region includes Jyväskylä, Jyväskylän maalaiskunta, Laukaa, Muurame and Toivakka.

As of 2006, the city mayor is Markku Andersson.

According to a wide imago survey (done every second year), Jyväskylä was still one of the most successful cities in Finland.[citation needed] In 2006 Jyväskylä was number two (after Tampere) as the most wanted city to live in Finland. The city was also believed to be the best growth milieu for children and the cosiest living environment. However, because of the small geographical size of the town, the living expenses have been rising and people have been moving to the surrounding municipalities located only few kilometres from Jyväskylä, thus causing the tax revenue to shift as well.[citation needed]

During the 1990's and 2000's, the city has become somewhat notorious for crime and social problems. Specifically, the frequency of violent crimes is remarkably higher than the average among Finnish cities.[1] The unemployment rate in Jyväskylä is 14,8% (2005).

[edit] Education
A number of firsts in Finnish education have taken place in Jyväskylä:

The first Finnish-speaking Lyceum (High School) (1858)
The first Finnish-speaking teacher training college (1863)
The first Finnish-speaking school for girls (1864)
Finland's first Summer University (1914)
Due to this, among other things, the city earned the nickname Athens of Finland.

The teacher training college later evolved into the College of Education (1934) and further into the multidisciplinary University of Jyväskylä (1966).

The University of Jyväskylä is one of the most popular universities in Finland. Almost 16,000 students are enrolled to study for a Bachelor's or Master's degree, and the university also offers PhD programs in most of its subjects. Historically, the university has excelled in the study of education, but in the last few decades it has also gained respect in the sciences. It is the only university in Finland offering university-level education in sports, training sports teachers and coaches. It's IT program is the largest (by attendance) in the country. Including school children, and the students in high schools, vocational schools, the university of applied sciences, known also for it's IT program, and the university, the number of students and pupils in the city reaches 40,000, boosting Jyväskylä's reputation as a "student city".


[edit] History
Jyväskylä was founded on 22 March, 1837 by Czar Nicholas I of Russia and it was essentially built from scratch. The original town was built between Lake Jyväsjärvi (which is connected to Lake Päijänne) and the Jyväskylä ridge (Harju), and consisted of most of the current grid-style city centre. In the early 20th Century, the town expanded several times. Most of today's Jyväskylä was built after the war, when refugees from Karelia and other parts of the country moved to the city and housing was badly needed. Today, Jyväskylä is growing by approx. 1,000 inhabitants/year. Interestingly, only about a third of the people living in Jyväskylä were born in Jyväskylä, which makes the town vibrant and culturally ever-changing.
