What Worries Denmark? - August 2025
What keeps Danes up at night? Ipsos’ What Worries Denmark survey diagnoses the biggest social and political problems by asking citizens their opinion on the most worrying issues in the nation. It provides a snapshot of the national mood and serves as a tracker that identifies short or long-term shifts in public feeling.
The overall levels of concern have remained relatively stable of the past few months. Climate Change and Immigration remain the top two concerns, whereas Inflation has seen a slow but steady increase in the past few months, now at 10%, making it the third most prominent worry among Danes. In July 2025, inflation reached a two-year high, likely reinforcing this recent rise in concern.
Stay tuned for the upcoming September update, or feel free to reach out for more detailed insights or analysis.
The Biggest Worries chart refers to an individual’s perception of the largest/most top-of-mind challenge Denmark is dealing with today.
The Total Worries chart encompasses the biggest worries and the respondents’ other worries combined.
