I think real info is how attainable is solid standard of living if you assume that buying your home is the single biggest expense item in your life. So I think you could min-max a “best” city in terms of work/life.
I bet in for instance urban Romania a car is a greater cost than a home. Also UK may have cheap housing, but most of it looks like slum by Danish standards. So no not really.
Also Denmark is in the middle, but has one of the best work/life ratios in Europe.
Yes you can get cheaper cars, it was an exaggeration on the misunderstanding that you can judge completely different things from stat.
But what is considered a mid range car here is more expensive than some houses in Romania.
I think those take rent not buying costs into account? Does Denmark also have very long mortages?
That doesn’t even make sense, property prices and rent are nor directly connected, there are other factors like taxes. Yes we have long mortgages up to 30 years, why?
Yes it is small, it’s barely enough for our house, and we have 1667 m2.
Still this is an English listing, and I didn’t search long. So how cheap it is IDK.
It wasn’t meant to be taken literally, but the outliers exist where it’s the case that even a midrange car can be more expensive than a house.

Yes they most certainly are, as rent is the main input of using a house as an investment. The simplest method of gauging if it’s better to rent or buy a property in an area is to use the price to rent ratio.

That is ridiculous statement.

This looks unflattering and surprisingly cheap. 200 sqm of land is very very tiny though.
