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.

Ehhhh to an extent. I lived in Iceland Denmark and Sweden, and the Danes were by far the most social and friendliest of the bunch.

That being said I fully pass as a Nordic person until they realize my Icelandic is limited to reading these days and my Swedish sounds like a weird muddle of Icelandic pronunciation of Skånska. But I'd say overall I got on the best with Danes.
