Top 6 in Top 10 countries with the highest happiness index in the world in 2023.
Although, during the last Covid epidemic, Sweden recorded a higher number of deaths than other Nordic countries, but this year they still rose 1 place to 6th place in the ranking. There are several important factors that help Sweden achieve this happiness.
First, Sweden has a good natural environment and the second lowest level of air and environmental pollution after Finland. This positively affects the health and average life expectancy of the population. Data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has shown that Sweden has a higher life expectancy than many other countries.
Sweden also has a high employment rate and strong gender equality. More than 80% of the population is employed, and everyone is guaranteed an equal opportunity for development and success. This fairness and synchronicity contributes to a higher level of life satisfaction and a sense of well-being among the Swedish people.
