Brøndbyvester is the "original" Brøndby and has several old farmhouses, but mostly consists of single family houses - this is a typical middle-class Danish suburb. Brøndby's name in Danish combines both "water well" and "town".

Brøndbyøster is east of the big intersection that parts the three different Brøndbys. (Brøndby Strand Projects 93), this part of the city has many older people and immigrants.

Brøndby Strand is a mix of those two cities. There are lot of single-family houses and 12 high-rise residential estates.
