And where's that money come from?  Yup: local taxes, mostly property.

Stockholm municipal fiber (L1 only) has been operating fiber network since 
1994, they're doing ~20MUSD profit on ~100MUSD turnover per year.

How often do they refresh and/or forklift their infrastructure?  They're
not still running on mid90s optical gear, I hope?
