My experience is directly opposite yours, funnily enough. I spend almost all my summers in Denmark and find people amazingly honest and friendly. I think people are just people, wherever you go - neither more nor less honest than anywhere else (given the opportunity). Even in Stockholm the 'local' police branches often close over the summer. I've only needed to dial the emergency number twice (luckily) and both times I was placed in a queue. Another time when kids were smashing bikes on my street in central Stockholm on a warm summer evening, the police simply said there was no-one available to send.
