A map showing per country how happy people feel there.
The image will likely explode the forum, hihi.
You can use the link to have a closer view of your continent/country like the one of Europe that I'm including. It also explain what they used to measure happiness levels.

The Netherlands aren't doing bad at all, according to this.
Do you feel it is correct for your country? Some seem to have very unhappy people!
Makes me wonder if it is really that bad?

Happiness is good.

This is really interesting. I would wonder what criteria were examined in making this determination.

Yeah..happy about what?

If you click the link at the bottom... it is explained in the article (a bullet point summary so no lengthy reading).

I'll stick it here as most people seem to miss me explaining where to find it, hihi


How is Happiness Measured?
First, let’s look at the factors used to calculate world happiness levels. Some clear indicators are health and wealth, both metrics that have been steadily on the rise worldwide. The report takes these into account, weighting GDP per capita and life expectancy at birth into the scores.

The report also looks at more intangible aspects, collecting survey responses around:
-Social support
-Freedom to make life choices
-Generosity
-Perceptions of government/ business corruption
-Positive or negative affects (Recent experience of emotions)

This year, there was a natural focus on the negative affect measure of the COVID-19 pandemic on happiness levels, such as exacerbating mental health risks. In addition, such measurements varied depending on each country’s response to the crisis.

Well, seems a fair portrayal, as far as India is concerned!

I think kind of the same with my country, The Netherlands.
