What is the best country in the European Union to live in?

[captain_obvious]

How is Denmark? The impression I get from what I've read online is it's a great place to live (even if the weather sucks). On top of that I'm genuinely interested in the country.

The main issue is employment. English teachers in Denmark are apparently required to speak fluent Danish. I can understand simple conversions but can't speak it. I don't want to work on a farm or in a kitchen.

France might be a better option.

That's why you should research instead of asking in a gaming forum.

Asking on a website frequented by European people is a part of research.

Politics don't mean anything to me at all, as long as you abide by the laws then you'll be fine.

As much as I like the UK, I would not live there even if Brexit didn't happen. The cost of living is too high and salaries are too low. Just like Ireland.

Republic of Ireland has some pretty decent tech jobs and the like (their tax laws mean a lot of European operations of huge companies are there). That said yeah it is not necessarily the easiest if you are not parachuted in for that.

Denmark. Same as anything else really. They are a rich technologically advanced country facing most of the same problems as any other -- falling birth rates (their do it for denmark adverts were hilarious) mean most politicos are crapping themselves and doing what they can to stave things off, outsourced jobs, said outsourcing and hippies destroying any semblance of manufacturing meaning computers (which Europe never hangs onto -- anybody that makes it out of the startup phase goes to the US to deal with less regs and bigger market) and finance (Denmark not really a hub for anything compared to Switzerland, Germany, the UK, Ireland, Belgium and the like) or government run healthcare and other programs are the main avenues of employment (much the same results for youth unemployment, attitudes and all that follows there). Their internal struggles are not as fraught as some others (east vs west Germany is still very much a thing, even if for different reasons, departments in France... we would be here all night and that is without the South American aspects, Spain... oh dear) and mostly technicalities with Greenland and the Faroes (though it is small enough that the capital vs elsewhere can be very much a thing).

Equally if not having fluent language is a problem then France is right out -- all French all the time is kind of a point of national pride.
Teaching wise fluent native language is going to be the case for everywhere really unless it is a dedicated American school or certain universities (mostly Eastern Europe and a few specialist ones) -- teaching English in English is mostly only a thing in a few Asian countries they do to allow university grads from English speaking countries to get a long term visa.
