🇩🇰 Where to live in Copenhagen

Copenhagen's residential areas range from the medieval core around Strøget and Nyhavn to newly built harbour districts at the waterline. In between sit the classic bridge quarters, each with its own tone: nightlife and grit in Vesterbro, multicultural energy in Nørrebro, park-side calm in Østerbro. Water shapes several of them, with canals and houseboats in Christianshavn and harbour baths at Islands Brygge. Every area listed here has a rapid-transit station within a few minutes on foot.
