I have lived many years in Malmo, Sweden (now in Florida) and the transformation in the ethnicity there is unbelievable, but sadly true!!! I saw a special on the Dicovery Channel about the construction of the Twisting Torso luxury condo building in Malmo. As I understand it, since the bridge was built to Copenhagen, there is an increasing number of people who live in Malmo and commute to work in Copenhagen.

In my weekly Danish Newspaper I just saw yesterday the picture of Twisting Torso, Europe's tallest building with 57 stores. Even before the bridge many Danish from Copenhagen would commute between Malmo and Copenhagen via Hydrofoil boats crossing the Sound 45 minutes. The reason is the residence market in Sweden is of better quality and cost much less regarding rental of apartments. I'm still renting a small apartment in Malmo since 1981. I haven't seen the bridge yet, it's big with train and car lanes so I can picture that the influx of Copenhagener has increased a lot. Also many Swedes from Skane works in Denmark and maybe even students, etc.!!!
