How this works This builds an indicative monthly budget from typical 2026 figures: rent (which varies most by city and household), food, utilities (around DKK 1,200-1,400 for a flat), transport and other spending, plus an optional car allowance (DKK ~3,500/mo all-in). Copenhagen rent runs 30-50% above other cities. These are estimates to plan around, not quotes - your own costs will vary. See our cost-of-living guide.
