Is moving to Copenhagen still sensible?
This Hacker News comment about Denmark got me thinking: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40240605.
I studied and lived in Copenhagen for more than a decade, spanning through the 2000 and 2010s. It was incredible. My IT salary was high, and living costs were reasonable, especially when living in the suburbs. I could afford a nice flat, leased a small car, ate great food, and still saved a ton. The working atmosphere was pleasant, and all public services were fine. Plus, nightlife was awesome.
I am considering to relocate from the UK or, alternatively, move to the US. Money is not a priority, but housing looks so expensive I don't know if it is worth it, sadly. That Hacker News comment might be a bit gloomy, but that matches feedback I received from others. Declining services, especially healthcare. Irma shut down, other grocery stores have declined in quality and prices are higher. In general, much reduced purchasing power.
What is your opinion, especially in comparison with other places?
