The new World Happiness Report shows that the top 10 happiest countries in the world remain largely unchanged compared to the 2023 report
One of the main reasons for the United States dropping out of the top 20 is the overall unhappiness of younger people, according to the report. The results are based on self-assessments from people in more than 140 countries who are answering questions regarding their overall satisfaction with their lives. The study also takes into account six key variables which contribute to explaining life evaluations, including GDP per capita, social support, healthy life expectancy, freedom, generosity and corruption.
The report draws on global survey data from people in more than 140 countries. Countries are ranked on happiness based on their average life evaluations over the three preceding years, in this case 2021 to 2023. The report is a partnership of Gallup, the Oxford Wellbeing Research Centre, the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network and an editorial board.
He also noted that Finland has happy immigrants, "so it's something that they're prepared to share with newcomers." And the timing of the survey obviously plays a role when there's a crisis. The survey in Israel was conducted after the Hamas attack on October 7, but before much of the ensuing warfare. So while life evaluations fell sharply, those scores only accounted for a third of the average.
