There is little doubt that the ongoing Coronavirus Crisis has changed many facets of how we live our lives – some perhaps even permanently.
From face masks and travel to working from home and interacting with others, life has transformed completely from what it was a year ago.
According to a new Epinion survey for Altinget media, it seems to have also pushed people living in cities to reconsider their urban lives … at least in Copenhagen.

Open spaces and population density
The survey found that over 50,000 residents in the Danish capital have considered leaving the city due to the restrictions introduced due to the epidemic.
Some 14 percent of respondents said they agreed or partially agreed that the crisis has made them consider living in a smaller city than Copenhagen.
“The Coronavirus Crisis has made home owners more aware of the value of fresh air and area with lower population density,” Mikkel Høegh, a housing economist with Realkredit bank, told Altinget.
