Its seat is located in the city of [[Höganäs]]. The rural municipality Höganäs, in which the first ''municipalsamhälle'' (a kind of [[borough]] managing matters of urban character) of Sweden had been established in 1875, received the title of a [[cities in Sweden|city]] in 1936. In 1967 it was merged with ''Väsby''. The present municipality was created with the reform in 1971 when the city was amalgamated with ''Brunnby'' and ''Jonstorp''. ==Geography== The municipality is located on the [[Kullen peninsula]], the extreme part of which is known as the [[nature reserve]] [[Kullaberg]] hill, with the picturesque villages of [[Mölle]] and [[Arild]]. The nature reserve is an [[Important Bird Area]] of [[Sweden]] and a location of several [[rare species|rare plant species]].<ref>[http://www.luminatechnologies.org/luminawws.html C.Michael Hogan, ''Kullaberg Nature Reserve'', Lumina Technologies, Aberdeen Library Archives, July 17, 2004] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100528121347/http://www.luminatechnologies.org/luminawws.html |date=May 28, 2010 }}</ref> The [[Kullen Lighthouse]], the most powerful lighthouse in [[Scandinavia]], is located on the western point of Kullaberg. The nature reserve is also home to a series of wooden structures along the coastline, which were begun by artist by Lars Vilks in 1980, and which have become known as [[Nimis (artwork)|Nimis]]. This is a tourist attraction despite being unauthorised by the Swedish authorities and therefore not marked on maps or signposted. ===Localities=== There were eight [[Urban areas in Sweden|localities]] in the municipality as of 2018. The municipal seat is marked in bold. {{aligned table|cols=2|row1header=yes|leftright=yes|class=wikitable | Urban area | Population | '''[[Höganäs]]''' | 15,444 | [[Viken, Sweden|Viken]] (part of) | 4,575 | [[Jonstorp]] | 2,044 | [[Arild]] | 715 | [[Mölle]] | 601 | [[Mjöhult]] | 327 | [[Farhult]] | 315 | [[Ingelsträde]] | 250 }} ==Demographics== This is a demographic table based on Höganäs Municipality's electoral districts in the [[2022 Swedish general election]] sourced from [[Swedish Television|SVT]]'s election platform, in turn taken from [[Statistiska Centralbyrån|SCB]] official statistics.<ref name=HöganäsVal2022>{{cite web|url=https://valresultat.svt.se/2022/riksdagsval-1284-hoganas.html|title=Valresultat 2022 för Höganäs i riksdagsvalet|publisher=[[Swedish Television|SVT]]|language=sv|date=11 September 2022|access-date=27 January 2024}}</ref> In total there were 27,560 residents, including 21,308 Swedish citizens of voting age.<ref name=HöganäsVal2022/> 38.5% voted for the left coalition and 60.3% for the right coalition.

the Riksdag are inserted as "other", including the Sweden Democrats results from 1988 to 2006, but also the Christian Democrats pre-1991 and the Greens in 1982, 1985 and 1991. The sources are identical to the table above. The coalition or government mandate marked in bold formed the government after the election. New Democracy got elected in 1991 but are still listed as "other" due to the short lifespan of the party. "Elected" is the total number of percentage points from the municipality that went to parties who were elected to the Riksdag. {| class="wikitable sortable" style="font-size: 95%;" ! Year ! Turnout !
