Feeling a bit down under: Australia drops out of world’s top 10 happiest countries

The Guardian

Australians are no longer happy little Vegemites, according to new research.

The latest World Happiness Report shows Australia has failed to make the top 10 world’s happiest countries list.

After just scraping into the top tier in 2024, the report now ranks Australia at 11th, with New Zealand just behind in 12th spot.

Nordic countries continue to lead the rankings, with Finland, Denmark and Iceland listed as the top three happiest nations.
