3. Iceland
Iceland’s breathtaking landscapes aren’t the only thing that keeps its citizens happy – it’s also the deep sense of community and equality. With a small population and a strong emphasis on gender equality, Iceland is often recognized for its progressive outlook and high-quality healthcare and education.
Icelanders live surrounded by nature, which encourages a sense of connection to the land. Trust in government institutions and a high level of social support make it one of the happiest places to live.
