Housing & Dwellings in Denmark
Where and how people live — the homes, how they are held, and what they cost.
Separate houses make up 91.5% of all homes in Denmark, far above the national figure. This creates a landscape of detached dwellings where home ownership is very high and housing costs are generally lower than in most other areas. The typical resident enjoys a more affordable living cost compared to state and national averages.
