Housing & Dwellings in Denmark
Where and how people live — the homes, how they are held, and what they cost.
A high proportion of homes are owned outright in Denmark, far exceeding the state and national figures. This makes it an area where nearly 44% of residents own their property without a mortgage. The housing market is dominated by separate houses, with very few other dwelling types.
