During the lowest rankings of the global happiness report of 2025 during increasing social isolation and political polarization, the US fell to its lowest rankings, while Finland and other Nordic country index remained at the highest rankings.
The Welling Research Center at Oxford University on Thursday published in the partnership of the gallery and the United Nations Durable Development Solutions network, the report evaluated various factors including health, wealth, freedom, generosity and corruption to measure the overall happiness of the society based on self-regulated evaluations in 147 countries.
Finland finished ranked this year, followed by Denmark, Iceland, Sweden, Netherlands, Costa Rica, Norway, Israel, Luxembourg and Mexico.
At the bottom of the index, Afghanistan got the lowest place, followed by Siera Leone, Lebanon, Malavi, Zimbabwe, Bhattwana, Democratic Republic of Kongo, Yemen, Komoros and Lesotho.
The United States is ranked 24th in comparison to the previous year. After the survey was started in 2, the following route was continued from the 5th place in the 5th.
Considering the growing preferences to eating alone, the United States has been highlighted in the United States.
“In 223, one of the four Americans ate all the meals alone on the last day – 53 per cent has increased from 2003 to 53 percent,” the report said.
“The lonely dinner of all ages has become more prevalent, but especially in young people.”

The report also pointed out to the increase in the “death of death” in the United States. Since 2000, they have been high in nations like South Korea and Slovenia, but such deaths have declined by 75 percent in 59 countries.
Researchers suggested that increasing grief could contribute to the increasing political polarization – this trend was also seen in Europe.
“Overall, the overall growth in the anti -system votes is clear due to the decline in life’s solutions, but trust in others. In the sad individuals who are attracted to the end of the political spectrum are often found to be right due to the low -believer people, the higher the trustees are more trend for the left -left voting,” the report said.
The feeling of social isolation in the United States is contradictory to countries like Mexico, who entered the list of the first 10 happy countries this year. According to the report, the fact that regularly sharing meals and living in large families contributes to welfare.
The World Happiness Report states that “sharing meals has a strong impact on personality welfare-along with the influence of unemployment and the influence of unemployment,” said the World Happiness Report. “It is true in the age group, gender, country, culture and regions.”
According to the report, big houses provide a potential benefit to promote positive social communication, which can explain why Mexico and Costa Rica are ranked sixth this year – despite the overall wealth, many European countries are recorded.
“The Latin American Society, which features a large home size and strong family bonds, gives valuable lessons to other nations that find higher and more durable welfare,” the report said.
Another important discovery is the strong relationship between the faith that happiness will return the lost wallet. John Cliffton, CEO of Galupup, emphasized that a small act was reflected in a deep social power.
“Happiness is not just about wealth or economic growth – it’s about trusting, connection and knowing that people are with you,” he said in the report. “If we want a strong community and economy, we must invest in really important things: each other.”
Social integration and a strong social security network were the most common features of the highest number of countries.
