The 10 happiest countries in the world for 2025

Finland and several other Nordic countries have once again been ranked as the world's happiest countries, according to an annual report that analyzed respondents' views on the quality of life in more than 140 countries and territories over the past three years.

The World Happiness Report, produced by the Well-being Research Centre at Oxford University in a partnership that includes Gallup, based its rankings on the responses of more than 100,000 people to a single life assessment question included in the Gallup World Poll: "Please imagine a scale with steps numbered from 0 at the bottom to 10 at the top. The top of the scale represents the best possible life for you and the bottom of the scale represents the worst possible life for you. On which step of the scale would you say you personally feel you stand at this time?"

Analysts found a strong link between well-being across the globe and sharing meals with others, a practice to which they recommend a return.

"In this era of social isolation and political polarization, we must find ways to bring people back to the table, doing so is essential for our individual and collective well-being," said Jan-Emmanuel De Neve, director of the Well-being Research Centre, professor of economics at Oxford and editor of the report, in a statement.

For the 2025 report, the data is based on combined responses from 2022 to 2024. And for the eighth year in a row, Finland ranked first, with its respondents scoring an average of about 7.7 out of 10 on the life satisfaction question. The consistently happy nation also ranked highly in categories such as inequality, social support, freedom and perceptions of corruption.

All other Nordic countries – Denmark (No. 2), Iceland (No. 3), Sweden (No. 4) and Norway (No. 7) also ranked in the top 10. Other nations in the top 10 include Costa Rica (No. 6) and Mexico (No. 10), both the first countries to join the list in 2025./CNA
