Bolbro is a Western neighbourhood of Odense, Funen, Denmark. It contains many sports stadiums and clubs including the Odense Idrætspark, Odense Isstadion, Odense Stadium, and Bolbroparken. Bolbro has the zip code 5200, which in many years were associated with the zip code, where the average inhabitants have the lowest income, as a large part is on social welfare.
