What makes a city liveable? A liveable city is the good qualities of a place that contribute to a
fine quality of life experienced by residents and others. The relative liveability of a place
depends on its environmental and social quality, perceived by residents, workers, customers
and visitors of the area. Copenhagen, Denmark is the ideal liveable city.

Copenhagen's culture is rooted in Danish traditions, which vary by region. Copenhageners are

Copenhagen Transcript

Copenhagen started as a small fishing village called ‘Havn.’ In the late 12th century, Bishop
Absalon built a fortified castle, turning it into a key trading hub. The name evolved to
København, meaning "Merchant's Harbor," and its strategic location helped it become the
capital of Denmark.

Recently, Copenhagen has gained acclaim for its fantastic food scene, with numerous
Michelin-starred restaurants highlighting its culinary excellence.

Copenhagen is known for its green initiatives, being named European Green Capital and aiming
to become the world's first CO2-neutral city by 2025.

Tivoli Gardens, centrally located near Copenhagen's central train station, is the city's most
famous amusement park and a popular spot for locals and tourists. The oldest amusement park
in the world is Bakken, established in 1583 just a short drive north of Copenhagen, known for its
classic rides and beautiful gardens. Both parks are some of the oldest amusement parks in the
world.

Copenhagen has low wage jobs which is detrimental to the economy of Copenhagen.
Low-wage jobs often lead to financial struggles and poor mental health among low-income
individuals. To prevent this, increasing income for low-income workers can increase customer
purchases, leading to profit gains for companies and encouraging resource expansion,
ultimately boosting the economy and productivity.

To enhance and fix the housing crisis we suggest Copenhagen can make housing more
affordable by making the following changes. They could lower the capital gains tax discount
from 50% to 25%, get rid of negative gearing, and include houses when checking if someone
qualifies for the Age Pension.This helps people obtain cheaper housing prices. Also, building
more homes would help everyone have a place to live and it will be easy for people who want to
find a place to live.

Overall, We consider Copenhagen to be a amazingly livable city excelling in all factors so we


think you should make Copenhagen your first choice when it comes to a liveable city and for a
place to live in.
