## Frederikssund in brief
The Frederikssund Line and Vinge Station: Frederikssund is the terminal station on S-train line A. The new Vinge Station (2020) is ready for a new district — Vinge — which is planned to accommodate up to 20,000 residents over time. The rail connection to Copenhagen takes approximately 50 minutes and is the municipality's main commuter route.

Roskilde Fjord and natural values: Frederikssund Municipality has a long fjord shoreline facing Roskilde Fjord and large natural areas at Jægerspris Nordskov and Jægerspris hunting castle. This gives homes with fjord views and access to nature a premium in the market.

Low vacancy and a healthy housing stock: With 3.6% vacancy, Frederikssund is one of the healthier commuter municipalities west of Copenhagen. Detached houses dominate (48%), and the housing market is stable with strong demand from Copenhagen commuters.
## Housing types

| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Detached house from 1960–1990 | 48% | 10600 | Detached houses dominate Frederikssund Municipality — from station-adjacent houses in Frederikssund city to more rural properties in Skibby and Jægerspris. The typical home is a brick house from the 1960s–80s. The location near the S-train gives good profitability on renovations. |
| Apartment building from 1960–1980 | 23% | 5100 | Apartment buildings mainly in Frederikssund city — including social housing associations. Station-adjacent location provides stable demand. |
| Terraced house from 1970–1990 | 21% | 4700 | Terraced houses in Frederikssund, Slangerup and Skibby. A popular family-friendly housing type with low vacancy. Many have potential for energy renovation. |
