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," said another expat in Denmark.
"It's really hard to say. I honestly find it hard to compare prices here and back in the states because you have the exchange rate which makes things seem a lot more here then there when at times its not. But I have heard people say 5k-6k for a rented apartment is on average in Copenhagen. Back home in DC depending where you live that could be cheap or expensive. My area in DC is poorer so we might pay 600 for an apartment. At times we have rented for as little as 475 so Copenhagen is expensive but on averaged compared to Washington, DC its probably cheaper," wrote a member who made the move to Copenhagen, Denmark.
