Being happy: Finland

Finland remains the happiest country in the world. It was ranked No. 1 in both the 2018 and 2019 World Happiness Report, an annual United Nations publication.

(The United States dropped to 19th, down from 13th in 2016.) The ranking is based on people’s answers about well-being and perceptions of corruption, generosity, and freedom.
