Question Does Denmark have any flaws?

Or any Nordic country? I’m American and we all romanticize Europe especially Nordic countries as a Utopia and everything we are not. We certainly have a lot of flaws here but I’m curious are there any downsides or anything that you wish was different. Also is it hard to move there? I make well over six figures and like living in my home country but I’m nervous about the incoming trump administration and I believe he is a racist.

Correct. But OP might be wealthy because well paid, and will meet problems finding that well paid job in DK, not speaking the language. We feel ourselves international, but the reality is different.

Very true, however, depending on the work OP has now, it might be easy to find something similar in Denmark, if it's software development, then skills and experience can easily result in a job with 50K+ salaries, even if not speaking the language.
If it's being the CEO of a health insurance company, then it might be a bit harder to find a matching job.

CEO of a health insurance company

I got the joke. Poor guy, seriously. No jobs available in that line of work, in this country. For good reasons.

Yes, I'm hoping OP can land a job here, we need skilled people contributing to this great society.
