Green areas
Måløv has many green areas and fields around it. So although the city today differs in both scope and character from the time Måløv was a village and a station village, the traces of the bygone times are easy to find. Måløv is thus still a rural town, and as some citizens of Måløv express it: "a lovely city to live in".
