Relocating to Copenhagen from USA

Hi Renjesh,

You have all reason to be satisfied with the offer. It's far beyond the average.

1) You can find information about the international schooles here:
https://internationalschools.dk/
The exact price for day-care and pre-school depends on your place of residence as it is up to the municipalities to set their tariffs. I link to Københavns kommune as you can find the wanted information in English here, and it will give you an idea of the price level.

2) As a highly-paid expat, you be entitled to profit from a special tax programme:

3) You'll be entitled to free health care. Some companies offer a special health insurance which will add a few things to the public health care. Most people won't profit from it as the public one is good enough.

4) I won't consider it a problem.

5) I like winter, but I admit that I belong to a minority. In my opinion, every season has its own charm, and I like the change.

6) If you search indiske foreninger i Danmark some suggestions will pop up. There are quite many Indians in the Copenhagen area.

7) You can manage very well without a car, but of course, it depends on where the company is located, and where you settle yourself, and how much time you want to spend on commuting. A bike could be a good thing to have if the distance is up to 10 km.

Thank you Nellie for the valuable info. International schools are quite expensive.

My work location is Humlebæk. Look like rent in Copenhagen is very expensive and away from my office, Would you be able to suggest some good places to stay and commute to office(30-40 min commute is okay) ?

The transportation systems in the Copenhagen area are to be compared with five fingers, all pointing towards Copenhagen. No problem if your destination is downtown Copenhagen, but if you want to go from a place at one finger to a place at another finger, you'll face problems. Only busses will be a possibility, and they are slow, they don't run so often, and the connections may be miserable.

Maybe, a little car would be a good idea.

Humlebæk is a little town at Kystbanen. This coastal line goes from Helsingør (Elsinore) to Copenhagen and continues to Sweden, and it will be my first choice to look for a housing along this line.

There is also the internation school

which is situated in Hørsholm.

When you come from India, now the US, you'll find Denmark very quiet, even Copenhagen is quiet. Too quiet? Hørsholm has a town centre and could be a good place to look for a housing. Helsingør is charming, but there will be more commuting, also if you want to go to Copenhagen and the airport.  All the other stops along the coastal line are in fact just stops.

Do ask the company for help to find a good housing. You can get an idea of the possiblities if you just google lejlighed til leje Hørsholm, Helsingør .........
