Seriously speaking, middle class Swedes/Scandinavians live very much in the same way as middle class Americans, Germans, Canadians and Australians etc do. Of course there are differences, but in general, the links I’ve posted provides a good insight into how people live.
However, a difference between how Americans and inhabitants of the Nordic countries (especially Finns, Swedes and Norwegians) arrange their lives according to housing and lifestyle at large is that many of us spend more money on our summer houses and the things we do there than our homes in the city.
It’s typical for lower middle class Scandinavians to own/rent a rather small apartment in the city and own a nice summer house near the sea or a big lake and a nice boat on top of that.
In the Nordic countries, the poorest of people seldom live in decaying (detached) houses or trailer parks like they do in the US, instead they are often found in government apartments.

Don’t feel left out we have government apartments also. They are called “Projects” or “Section 8”
They’d have tours of the Muslim enclaves but there
aren’t any Armored buses...
