The aim of this report is to describe and explain what housingliving segregation is and how it affects the inhabitants in Sweden and in Denmark. It also highlights an aspect of what the problem includes and explores if there is a planning method that can be deployed as a part solution. Previous research shows that if we want safe environments within townsvillages or cities, we cannot have segregated societies. Safe and social environments come from a society where everyone is included no matter if you are rich, poor orf from a different country of birth. Sweden and Denmark were selected since both countries has been described as welfare states and share other similarities as well. This was done with the hope to be able to compare the outcome of different planning strategies has been implemented in similar contexts.

The method that was used was a literature study. The reason for mostly that was basing this study on previous published and peer-reviewed research because is that it is widely considered to be a it was more reliable source of  information.  to use research from researchers. The main reason why it was better was for the limited amount of time. 

As the result shows neither Sweden nor Denmark manages to succeed with their housing policy. In Sweden, the problem seems to be tied to the rent regulation and the belief that it causes housing deficit. In Denmark, the problem was that the rent regulated areas became so called Ghettos areas. Something that that the Danish government tried diminishing through the implementation of the (so called) Ghetto plan.
