What is the average cost of housing in Denmark?
If you are thinking about moving to Denmark, cost of living in probably a key consideration. Expats commented about the cost of housing...
"The average cost of housing in Denmark is generally quite high, with the average price of a home in the country being among the highest in Europe. Renting is also expensive, with the average monthly rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Copenhagen being around €1,000," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Denmark.
"Our housing costs were double what we had thought we could live with in Denmark. We had minimal time to agree to move there and with minimal research we thought we could manage living outside of Copenhagen on a lower rental amount. That was our first mistake. The time it takes to get into Copenhagen either by car or train takes its toll and increases costs. We paid about $8000 a month in rent for a three bedroom townhouse," commented one expat who made the move to Copenhagen, Denmark.
