<p>This article explores the quality of life (QOL) of people with intellectual disabilities (ID) in Denmark by reviewing literatures on the Danish welfare system and legislation relevant to social services delivery. First, current levels of support and the living conditions of people with ID in Denmark, which are affected by legislation and social services, were examined. Subsequently, recent studies on the QOL of Danish individuals with/without ID were reviewed. People with ID receive significant welfare provisions, which guarantee a normal living standard akin to that of ordinary Danish citizens. Nevertheless, recent reforms have gradually impacted individuals’ lives, particularly young people, including a lack of employment opportunities and lower social security. Recent studies on the QOL of Danes with ID have indicated the importance of improving professional support for this group. General QOL surveys have documented high satisfaction levels amongst the Danish population; however, there are limited studies of QOL assessment for people with ID. In the future, studies on QOL in Denmark should involve individuals with ID to understand their personal perspectives.</p>
