Finland Is The Happiest Country In The World

Scandinavia is still the world’s happy place, firmly holding on to the top 3 of the World Happiness Report in 2020.

As Statista’s Katharina Buchholz reports, Finland, Iceland and Denmark were named as the world’s three happiest countries in the study that is based on surveys by Gallup as well as developmental indicators.

Despite the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, happiness scores did not change majorly around the world in 2020. The majority of interviews for the report was carried out during the first wave of the pandemic in spring 2020.
