Really awesome to see Romania at the top of this chart, happier than even Finland. After decades of living in misery under the Ceaușescus during the 20th century, Romanians deserve some time in the sun.
- hulitu 3y agoIt's because of alcohol consumption. /s
- Moldoteck 3y agoas a Romanian working in IT, living here is not that bad (if we ignore medicine quality, education and infrastructure, big cities included), but working in other domain with a much smaller pay and these downsides is ... hard. Idk how this report was made, maybe it's true, maybe not, maybe ppl are happy despite having small salary & poor infra/other things compared to the west, or maybe it's coping, but for me - I just hope to emigrate soon in a country with better infra & about same pay (Switzerland, NL, Austria, maybe Denmark(worse weather), or maybe something entirely different&chill like north Italy/south France or Barcelona(these are nicer for chillness but harder to get a good pay)

- Moldoteck 3y agoI would put Switzerland at the top since income will be higher even with increased COL. Nl is close bc of 30% tax for the first 5 years. Dn and Austria are close bc COL vs salaries are about the same, maybe some advantage in austria bc of better weather
