Far more English speakers than 13 years ago ... especially those that make minimal efforts to integrate (the surplus from Toronto and the USA and UK is notable). Also, prices of course. Criticism of the Danish system is louder amongst Expats (again an Anglo Saxon sense that "we know better"). Bigger club Bubbles. Prevalence of foreign kids in sports clubs - especially ice hockey (Østerbro area) for example. Forces culture and coaches to manage the merging of cultures, But ultimately creates bubbles for kids as many still never learn Danish.
