Is the 10% before or after taxes? Would love to get a sense of your rent (or equiv. wage) range if there are no privacy concerns.

The high taxes line was just a flippant remark, I can't really complain as I knew about it beforehand. Having said that, the perks that come from high taxes are of little value to an expat moving there for a 1-2 year gig.

Before tax. Rent is 3400 DKK, in a nice house share with two developers. Our lease is up in January (original owner wants it back), but it has been nice otherwise. 10 months here.

You can extrapolate the wage from this, but it's not high in the field at all.
