It also sounds like the rent-control in Sweden isn't like that in other places. TFA at least implies:
1. It is universal
2. Rates are collectively negotiated between landlords and tenants
This is more like a renters union that there is a 9 year waitlist to join than typical rent control.
The impression I get is that Sweden has fewer people sharing flats and more affordable flat rents (adjusted for income) than most places in western Europe.
