Hey guys. How's it going? I'm Dave Walpole and like I said welcome to the channel now
This is actually one of our first times where ever really starting to do some live streams here
with our with our content, so
we do a lot of things of like which is better where we take a look at two different places such as
Copenhagen and of course Amsterdam's
Or such as Amsterdam. Sorry a little getting used to talking live, but either way so what we're gonna
Do is we're gonna look at these two different places, and we're gonna find out
What is truly great about them now before we get into this video guys if you guys have any suggestions for a future?
F.2d facts videos let us know down there in the comment section below because well, we really love hearing from you guys
And we really do love like learning with you guys and that's kind of the point of us doing these live streams so a lot
Of you guys who jump in the comments section you guys can go hey, man
Give us some information as we're actually delivering it to you, but either way guys
Let's start looking at these two different nations or nations. Let's look at these two different cities and find out
What is good about them alright so first of all let's take a look at?
Amsterdam now Amsterdam is one different city compared to Copenhagen because Copenhagen our Amsterdam compared to Copenhagen
Amsterdam has a population of 850
1374 people now currently it is the capital of the Netherlands
And is the most populated place in the country as well as it's one of the top financial
centers in all of Europe now when I was talking about its population density you got to keep in mind that they have a
population density of
5000
135 people per square kilometer
Now because of that they are actually stretched throughout all these people are stretched throughout a land size of 200
19.3 2 kilometers
And that is basically the size of the city now if we jump over to Copenhagen
Copenhagen is just a little bit different as a matter of fact when it comes to Copenhagen Copenhagen is also the capital of
Denmark it is the most populated city now
It was originally a Viking village back in the 10th century
But has grown to be what it is today and as a matter of fact by the year of
2025 this city of Copenhagen aims to be completely carbon neutral now
Diving further deep into it. Let's take a look at some of the population of
Copenhagen now for Copenhagen they have a population of approximately
Six hundred and thirteen thousand two hundred and eighty-eight people as for its density
That's kind of hard to tell but it definitely stretches of a length such as overall and size of eighty six point three nine
kilometers square
But that's not what so
But that's not the only thing that's actually good about it because one thing that we really got to start looking at when it comes
To these two different cities is because well, you know cities are not just known for their population
They're also known for many other great things such as tourism like why do people go to these places in the first place
So let's take a look at Amsterdam now
Amsterdam has approximately
400 Amsterdam has tourists of approximately four point six three million people visit that city a year now that doesn't include
It's 16 million tripperz who come to the city daily for drugs now
Yes what I mean by tripperz?
Is they are pretty much people who come there for drugs or they come there on a drug trip?
They're basically. They're what we call daily tripperz
I mean I've heard that daily tripperz is just like another form of people who kind of go there for just one day
But I've also heard it's people go there for drugs, so I don't necessarily know if that's true
I'm actually very curious to hear what you guys say about that for people who are from Amsterdam
So let us know down there in the comment section below
What are tripperz because I'm just totally totally totally confused now when it comes to Amsterdam
You got to also keep in mind. It's also known rather
It's also known very well for its red-light district now of course the red-light district
all of Amsterdam is known throughout the world and as a matter of fact in that red light district population or
Prostitution I should say is actually legal and the seventh and of course. It's well known for its 17th
Century canals which are in the heart of the city which make up, it's very popular UNESCO Zone on top of that
Amsterdam has tons of dirt on top of that should sorry say that Amsterdam has tons of churches
National museums and the Royal Palace of Amsterdam, which has been on the ground and been bailed since
1665 and was even home to King Louie
Napoleon for a short time as well you can't forget when it comes to Amsterdam you just can't forget that people go to this place
For the gay pride parade which happens pretty much once a year and happens throughout the canals now jumping over to
Copenhagen, it's a little bit different from everybody else now
Copenhagen also, it's very popular. Well. It's got a tourists of approximately 5 million people who visited in
2013 now for
2016 it had some of the most occupancy in beds out of all out of its entire collective of years
now for this
They had approximately in 2016 they had
863 thousand people come for businesses and approximately 740 thousand people coming for cruise ships
And what makes that fascinating is?
Copenhagen is actually a huge cruise ship port as a matter of fact
I used to work on cruise ships myself
So going to places like the Netherlands and Denmark was a huge thing for people especially in America and people in Europe as well
However, also when it comes to people coming to this place
It's a little bit different because they have over a hundred thousand people coming for conferences
So
What is also known very well for these two cities now one thing? That's
Important when it comes to cities is you got to keep in mind?
Education is a big big thing like from Toronto here, so it's a kind of a big thing
You've got London around which is known as a university city as well now are these cities University cities, or are they?
Well, let's take a look at the education of these two different places so
when it comes to colleges and
universities in Amsterdam, they have 12 major universities and approximately
200 primary schools
Which include the University of Amsterdam?
Now Copenhagen on the other hand as approximately only well doesn't have only it has approximately eight universities
with the University of Copenhagen being the main one and
throughout all those different schools
there's a bunch and hundreds of different primary schools and their education is very similar to
What you would find in the rest of the cities around the country?
now looking further into
looking further into the
Temperatures of these two because some people like to travel because temperatures are great like for me
I just love to go to places like you know Rio
Or I'd love to go to things like Florida because it's just a warm temperature
And I'm from Canada, so it's like. I don't really want to be around
You know the winter seasons, so going places that are warm are really good
But as for these two cities both of them experience four seasons a year. They both get fall. They both get spring they both get
Summer and of course winter. I don't know why I just totally forgot about it right there
But that is the truth they get those and to go further into detail about these things when it comes to things like
Amsterdam so Amsterdam for example
their highest temperature well first of all they're known as an oceanic climate
And they get a lot of its weather that come from the West which is its northern sea
Now for its for the now for its four seasons the hottest month is July with approximately seventeen point six degrees
Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius don't ask me. Why guys I even said Fahrenheit there because here in Canada we use Celsius here
I think it just wrote it down
Or I don't wrong so whatever so again so but as for its cold seasons
January an average daily mean temperature is approximately three point four degrees Celsius
Now what I mean by daily mean although?
Three point four degrees Celsius might seem rather warm keep in mind at nights it can drop definitely below zero two Celsius
That's why as you see this place can get snow as well
Now when it comes to Copenhagen however Copenhagen has very similar temperatures
Because in Copenhagen they have approximately sixteen point nine
Degrees for their highest temperature in July and as for their lowest temperature that is approximately six degrees Celsius
Which actually happens in February?
Alright so first of all guys I want to say that
Thank you guys for tuning in to our livestream here. It's been awesome that you guys are actually tuning in and
You know for us here on FTD facts. You know we're just trying new things
We're trying to see how well it is that we can just riff with you guys and just hang out with you guys so we
Have some really cool comments guys
don't forget that you guys can leave comments and suggestions for future FTD facts videos and
Also, give this a big thumbs up if you guys are from any of these cities
Seriously guys. I know I'm stuttering a lot on some of this, but this is the first time
We've ever done a livestream normally
We like to really really prep and we break down our stuff
So it's you know you don't see a lot of the scripts that we're doing on the camera today
So we're still working with it so if you have any ideas of how we can always improve our live stream
Please let us know and for you guys. Who are not watching this during the live stream
Let us know what you guys think as well so but one thing
I want to look at when it comes to Copenhagen and I want to look at when it comes to Amsterdam is
Living expenses because you know all these places might be really great
they may have all these amazing places to go and see but truth be told I mean the thing is is if if
If one place is more expensive than the other then you might not want to go there
So looking at that if we were to look at the living expenses in
Copenhagen compared to Amsterdam we find that in Copenhagen food is approximately 17% more however housing is
approximately 2% less
clothing in Copenhagen is 6% more transportation is roughly cheaper by 8% in Copenhagen and
Personal care is a whopping 57% more in
Copenhagen now. I don't know why that is I mean, maybe it's due to the fact that in
All of Copenhagen Denmark there is more expensive health care
That could be something it could not just be the city itself so keep in mind when it comes to that guys so
What else we got so we've also got entertainment is also approximately nine percent more expensive
And that makes it a total of three percent more expensive to live in Copenhagen than it does in
Amsterdam so pretty cool, so either way guys that is us. Just taking a look at these two of really fascinating cities
One thing that I definitely didn't mention when it comes to
Copenhagen is they're also very firm. They're also very famous for the Tivoli Gardens
They've been open since August 13th of
1843 and it's actually the most visited Park in Scandinavia
And they get approximately 4.6 million visitors a year now that means people coming within the country and it also
Within the city and the country but people come from all around the world to check it out so either way guys
Thank you guys for tuning in and guys don't be oh cool. If we got some people from the Netherlands. Hi hi tower
