Benefit package for a new resident

Those who have moved to Äänekoski are entitled to the benefits of a new resident. In addition to the traditional benefits, the Bucket for a good life campaign aimed at those moving to Äänekoski offers a printed towel and a bucket for each household.

From the beginning of 2023, we will kick off Ämpäreitäin good life campaign. The purpose of the campaign is to attract new residents to move to Äänekoski. 

During 2024, those moving to Äänekoski will receive ecological buckets, which can be filled with many important things that support a better everyday life in their new hometown. The bucket is handed over at a coffee event for new residents, and 1 per household is distributed.

In addition to the bucket, the movers receive a traditional new resident benefit package, which includes: 

  • I invite you to a coffee meeting for the new residents.
  • Printed towel with Äänekoski designs
  • Two free tickets to the city's swimming hall and the art museum. 
  • Those under 15 get an additional benefit of a 50 euro gift card, which is intended to support the hobby. The gift card can be used for seasonal or course fees of local e.g. sports clubs, music school or Koskela settlement. 

To receive the benefits, you must fill out the new resident form (below). It is enough for one adult in the family to fill in the information of all family members in the form. The information on the form will still be checked by the Population Register Center. 

By filling out the form, the resident gives permission to the city of Äänekoski to send the new resident's benefits package, which includes the benefits mentioned above. The benefit is one-time. You can find the form's privacy statement here.
