Living in the Øresund Region

The importance of national borders continues to decline in the new borderless Europe. The Øresund region is a region that reflects the modern age: two countries – Eastern Denmark and Southern Sweden – complementing one another in a region without frontiers. The location in Europe combined with finely developed infrastructure – which includes Kastrup, Copenhagen’s international airport – makes the region easily accessible from all parts of the globe, and travel within the region itself is remarkably simple thanks to an excellent public transport network.

Multifaceted – with delightful countryside
The Øresund region is a multifaceted and fascinating region from many perspectives. Big towns and cities with a rich cultural life mingle with thriving village communities – all set against the background of the most delightful countryside. The region as a whole is surrounded by the sea and bordered by wonderful sandy beaches, with sweetly scented beech forests and open landscapes right nearby. It also enjoys a very pleasant climate. In fact, its golf courses remain open all year round – an attraction that no other area of Northern Europe can match. The standard of living in the region is high, and the welfare system is very well developed.
