"Expats in Copenhagen often find the language barrier to be one of the most challenging aspects of the local culture. Danish is the official language of Denmark, and while many Danes are able to speak English, it can be difficult for expats to fully integrate into the culture without a good understanding of the language. Additionally, the cost of living in Copenhagen is quite high, making it difficult for expats to adjust to the local economy. Finally, the Danish culture is known for its reserved and formal nature, which can be difficult for expats to adjust to, especially those coming from more outgoing cultures," wrote a member who made the move to Copenhagen, Denmark.
