Yes it is rural area.

If you try to translate the words as Danish to English you get no results
since the words are German:

Kniplerin is a girl or woman making lace. -in is a German fem ale ending.

Parzelen Besitzer is the owner of a piece of land or farm. Besitzer is the
German word for owner. Parzel is a part of a piece of land...

Hauerinst is a female expression for a wine farmer. Klüpelt is probably the
name.

I asked my husband - he is Austrian.

I found some occupation words on the census that I can't find translation
for online or in my dictionary.

Parzenenbesitzer
Kniplerin
Häuerinst Klüpelt

Tønder Landgemeine: I think this means she was born in rural Tønder?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Julie
