>The building looked like a century old

That's because it almost certainly is. 100 years is not an advanced age for a building outside the US.

I have been to copenhagen and it is basically a paradise. You are lucky to be living there.

Exactly - the century-old buildings is where people want to live, because on the inside they're modernized and on the outside it's great architecture. Here's a couple of street views from Islands Brygge, the neighborhood cphhell mentioned:

"I have been to copenhagen" meaning, you rode the roller coasters in Tivoli? I'm sure visiting as an (affluent) tourist would be a much more pleasant experience.

100 years isn't even advanced age for east coast US cities.
