Finland once again topped the list of happiest countries, while the U.S. had a significant drop.
It’s no surprise that Santa Claus’ home country has been named the happiest by the annual World Happiness Report for seven years in a row. Nordic countries filled out the top of the list, with Denmark, Iceland and Sweden following Finland.
"I think, the main thing is, people are content with their life because in Finland you have a really nice balance of your work life and your leisure life," she said."School is free, the health care system is free. The social security is very good." The top 10 have remained fairly stable in comparison to previous years. Netherlands, Norway, Luxembourg, Switzerland and Australia complete the top of the rankings.
The report said the reason for the North American countries placing lower has everything to do with the younger generations and the negativity they are consuming on social media. If only citizens under 30 were polled, the U.S. would’ve ranked at 62.
