- According to Statistics Denmark, the population growth in the capital is in decline. Families with small children are moving away. The only reason why the decline is not sharper is that there are still a lot of internationals who move to Copenhagen.
- The same trend has been identified in Aarhus and Odense.
- Silkeborg, Skanderborg, and Horsens are the three cities with the biggest population growth in the next decade (all over 10% increase). Why? Families with children are moving there. There are many jobs available and the housing prices are affordable.
- For 68 municipalities out of 98, the future looks grim. Their population will shrink by more than 10% in the next decade. Places like Langeland, Hjørring, Skive, Tønder and Lolland.
