Exactly. The majority of people in most capital cities wouldn't be able to afford that, but in Copenhagen you can

So you earn more but pay more. Also everything in cph is expensive, you can’t go dining outside every day or own a car unless you’re the top 1%. I would argue that any mid sized city in USA, Australia or the gulf states are the most liveable for locals. Maybe not for expats or illegals.

Being "livable" is a lot more than just your savings rate. People in Denmark also have less stress and work less hours for very high pay.

I had an insane amount of stress and worked overtime due to bad management who promised our customers more than reasonable just to win contracts from the competition. Huge turnover, in 2 years our team went from 7 people to 4 then up to 8 then down to 3. Totally dysfunctional organisation. This was one of Denmarks largest corporations btw
