About Furesø Kommune

In Furesø, you get the best of both worlds: We are close to nature and the vibrant life of the capital. And no matter where you are in Furesø, you are no more than 3 minutes from the nearest forest, lake, or park. Everyone – children and adults alike – therefore has the opportunity to be active in beautiful surroundings, whether you enjoy the sound of babbling water, the scent of forest floor, or manicured green lawns. We have many different types of housing and town centers, and new strong communities are emerging in our new development areas. We have a varied selection of childcare, and our schools are in the top 10. Therefore, 99 percent of our young people also start an education after school, and we are of course working to include the last ones. Furesø is also a good place to grow old: We have good senior housing and nursing homes with many activities, and we are focusing on creating more elderly-friendly housing in the coming years. You will find a rich offering of cultural experiences here. Galleries, museums, libraries, and cultural centers are spread throughout the municipality. And in Furesø, we are almost Danish champions in association participation. There is also room for big ambitions. In Furesø Municipality, you will find some of the country's best sports clubs. This applies, for example, to football, where the football club FC Nordsjælland is based at Farum Park. But also in badminton, basketball, sailing, skiing, and rowing, we have athletes who set high goals and bring home the gold. In Furesø, we emphasize family life in strong communities with active citizens as the driving force.
