Channel: unknown
[6]
Happiness can mean very different things to
different people.
[11]
The countries with the happiest immigrants
are not the richest countries, but instead
[17]
the countries with a more balanced set of
social, and institutional supports for better
[22]
lives.
[24]
Here are the ten happiest countries to live
in the world for 2019; many of these countries
[31]
are seen as the world’s safest countries.
[40]
10. Austria.
[45]
Austria scored particularly highly in social
support and its citizens’ freedom and was
[51]
no doubt helped by its capital Vienna – now
widely regarded to be the world’s most liveable
[58]
city.
[61]
73% of Austrians are satisfied with their
lives despite high levels of air pollution
[70]
and schools that are less than stellar.
[74]
Maybe the lower-than-average crime rate explains
why Austrians feel so good.
[80]
The Alps cover around 62% of Austria, making
it one of the most scenic and extensive skiing
[88]
destinations.
[94]
9. Canada.
[99]
Although Canada is still ranked as one of
the happiest nations in the world, it did
[105]
drop two spots from last year.
[109]
Canada still ranks high across pretty much
every category with great life expectancy
[115]
married to a still small population with more
than enough room to spread out and find their
[121]
corner of paradise.
[127]
According to the report, part of Canada's
high happiness score also comes from its tolerant
[134]
approach to multiculturalism, via programs
that promote inter-ethnic understanding.
[144]
8. New Zealand.
[149]
Holding steady once again in the eighth spot,
New Zealand remains a relaxed, welcoming wonderland
[157]
that loses none of its appeals, whether you’re
on vacation or based there permanently.
[164]
The people here don't place too much emphasis
on work, spend lots of time outside, and aren't
[173]
overly concerned about "personal achievement"
or status.
[181]
New Zealand is also known for beautiful landscapes,
outdoor adventure sports including Bungy jumping,
[189]
jet boating, and sky diving, as well as significant
climate, good food.
[200]
7. Sweden.
[204]
Essentially swapping places with Canada since
last year, Sweden has once again benefitted
[211]
from excellent social support and a high life
expectancy.
[219]
The Swedish government lists perks such as
long parental leave policies, free schooling,
[226]
and baby-friendly public areas.
[230]
Health care, as well as a college education,
are free, and its people boast one of the
[238]
longest life expectancies in the world.
[247]
6. Switzerland.
[250]
It’s one of the world’s wealthiest countries
and has been well-known for centuries for
[258]
its neutrality.
[259]
Their welfare and healthcare programs are
amongst some of the best in the world.
[267]
The average life expectancy is 83; they are
multilingual, with most citizens understanding
[274]
German, French, and English.
[278]
The Swiss see public transportation as a right;
they've got a bus system that ensures no one
[286]
in the country has to walk more than 10 minutes
to get to public transportation.
[295]
5. The Netherlands.
[298]
A country in northwestern Europe is known
for a flat landscape of canals, tulip fields,
[307]
windmills, and cycling routes.
[312]
The country’s also renowned liveability,
progressiveness, and work-life balance.
[322]
Famously relaxed and welcoming, their particular
brand of lifestyle has propelled to the fifth
[329]
happiest country on Earth.
[332]
The pace of life and freedom are particularly
strong points that put a smile on many residents’
[342]
faces.
[345]
4. Iceland.
[350]
The island nation was rated to be the most
peaceful nation on Earth.
[356]
Beautiful landscapes that make you feel like
you’re wandering through Middle Earth.
[363]
By far the world’s most equality-driven
country, tiny Iceland’s isolation has been
[370]
a boon rather than a burden to its equally
tiny population.
[379]
Iceland offers a relatively low-income tax,
free health care, and free higher education
[386]
to its citizens.
[392]
3. Norway.
[395]
Norway’s consistently described as Europe’s
most beautiful country that benefits from
[403]
little to no corruption, phenomenal social
support and freedom and a regular top spot
[410]
in the world’s prosperity indexes.
[417]
Norway provides free education, public pensions
and universal healthcare for its residents,
[425]
and is widely considered to be an exemplar
of social and economic success.
[433]
People in Norway tend to have a great deal
of social support, trust their government,
[440]
and live a long life.
[444]
Both the poverty rate and the gender pay gap
are amongst the lowest in the world.
[454]
2. Denmark.
[460]
Benefiting from excellent life expectancy
and one of the smallest wealth gaps in the
[465]
world, it’s got to have its eye on the top
spot for 2020.
[474]
Denmark is a small country with a low crime
rate and a low fear of crime.
[480]
The Danish are generally well educated, well
informed.
[485]
Denmark has a stable government, low levels
of public corruption, and access to high-quality
[493]
education and health care.
[499]
The country does have the highest taxes in
the world, but the vast majority of Danes
[505]
happily pay: They believe higher taxes can
create a better society.
[515]
1. Finland.
[519]
Finland is one of the most peaceful countries
in the world.
[524]
It has the highest quality of life.
[527]
The country of about 5.5 million people is
home to around 300,000 foreign nationals,
[535]
with its largest immigrant groups being from
other European nations.
[540]
It’s the only country in the developed world
where fathers spend more time with school-aged
[547]
children than mothers.
[550]
In particular, the generosity of its people
with little to no corruption and high GDP,
[558]
married to the extraordinary freedom offered
by its landscapes and social structure make
[564]
it the place to live.
[569]
And if you can’t live there, we highly recommend
a visit to these countries.
