Terjärv

Terjärv is a former municipality of Finland, since 1969 part of Kronoby.
Terjärv is located in the province of Western Finland and is part of the Ostrobothnia region. The ex-municipality has a population of about 2,400.
The former municipality is bilingual, with a large majority Swedish-speaking and the minority Finnish. Being by air from port city Jakobstad at the nearest coastline, the central village is among the further inland settlements of Swedish-speaking Finland. The village of Vistbacka within the former municipality is even further inland at from Jakobstad, which makes it the furthest inland settlement where Swedish is the dominant language. Terjärv is known as 'The Pearl Of Ostrobothnia' for the exceptionally nice nature for the region, with rolling hills and numerous lakes along the river running through Terjärv.
Kokkola-Pietarsaari Airport is located in Kronoby close to Terjärv.
