Very realistic budget for a good quality of life in CPH, great job! I'd just say to increase some budget for public transport as friends can live really far. Also, in the winter I use public transport a lot more than bikes but guess I haven't reached that level yet
I lived in Denmark without Indbo or ulykkeforsikring for 7 years. When I was buying a house, the bank told me that it would be a good idea to have those two. So it’s definitely not required by law
Hi Denis. Thanks for the comments. You are right! My bad. I would still advise against not having them, especially accident insurance. But if you have a vehicle, you need it.
Great video. Thanks. It would be also interesting to hear how an expat can get along with Danes. There are some stereotypes that Denmark is a closed nation and they are not always ready to accept strangers to their community. It would be interesting to hear your opinion on that
Indeed, that's a great idea. I will make a video in a not so distant future about finding friends among the Danes. I think I can provide some tips on that and some context as well :-) Stay tuned!
6000 for a room is the minimum, many rooms are way more, plus most people that rent out rooms require 3 months Deposit minimum. so 6000 x 3 at least down payment : 18,000. Actually some landlords require 5 months Deposit. and Copenhagen is Notorius for Scumbag landlords that never return your deposit.
Thank you Nicholas for this comment. Agree, there are unfortunately many stories about landlords not repaying deposits. I think it's rare to see rooms at more than 7,000 DKK - but maybe the market has been impacted by inflation since I checked last time.
Are there any specific jobs in the agriculture industry that you are interested in? The Danish agricultural sector doesn't employ so many people any more as it's mostly been mechanised. So, typically 1-3 people on a fairly large farm.
Du får altså ikke ret meget bolig for 6.000,- kr her i Kbh. Hvor har du det tal fra? Jeg har selv boet her i 20 år, og husleje inkl. varme, el, vand og internet ryger hurtigt over 7.000,- /md for 50 m2, og jeg bor i _udkanten_ af kommunen...!
I videoen refererer jeg til et værelse for 6k, da værelser typisk vil være det første, som man flytter ind i. Hvis man vil leje en lejlighed, er det selvfølgelig dyrere, hvis man ikke står på ventelister de rigtige steder.
Hi John. It is for a private room, but in a shared apartment - typically. You cannot get a whole apartment for that kind of money. Or, actually you can, but you have to be on waiting lists for many many years, or know someone etc. etc.
That's not a statistic you can pull from anywhere. But a lot of expats - as well as Danes - are complaining about it, so it must be something to be aware of.
@@Fausto-q5n That don't sound like much. In the video I recommend 13,000 DKK after tax to be the minimum if you want to live fairly comfortable in Copenhagen - and that is still in the low end depending on your options for accommodation.

True, public transportation can get quite expensive if you use it a lot. Especially, if it's for going longer distances and across the country.

The more concerning for me is: are adult people supposed to really live in shared apartments with strangers? Is this normal in Denmark?
Plz make a vedio on agriclture related jobs odd to white color job as eng

Did you say that accommodation cost was for a ‘shared’ room? So not a whole apartment?

Heart back
how inaccurate is the following statement?: 'Expats don't usually get their deposit back'
I’d like to know this as well.

@@danishdream Good to know, thank you sir!!
very nice try.
CAN I AFFORD TO LIVED IN DENMARK IF MY PENSION IS $1,200 A MONTH?
I don't know if you can. Can you? And in that case, where do you live in the country? The differences in terms of cost of living are significant.
$1.00 = 7 Danish Crown. $1,200 × 7 = 8,400 Danish krone. Is this not sufficient enough for a Single Person to live in Denmark?
@@Fausto-q5n That don't sound like much. In the video I recommend 13,000 DKK after tax to be the minimum if you want to live fairly comfortable in Copenhagen - and that is still in the low end depending on your options for accommodation.
That means I need $!,857.14 every month in order to live comfortably well in Denmark. 13,000 Danish Crown ÷ $7.00 = $1,857.14. Right!!!
@@Fausto-q5n Yes that's about it.
That link cannot open 😢
Sorry, I'm currently migrating my website, so I'll look into fixing this.
