The UN report cites factors like loneliness among Americans under 40.
The U.S. ranks as the 23rd happiest country in the world, according to a new report from the United Nations published on Wednesday. And while that may not sound too bad, given the fact that there are 143 countries on the list, it’s a significant drop from last year when the U.S. ranked 15th. Sadly, it looks like Americans under the age of 44 are to blame for our national malaise.
Millennials also feel less socially supported than Boomers in those countries, another place in which these countries look different from the rest of the world,” the report explains. Oddly, the report notes that all of this is occurring “despite the fact that actual social connections are much more frequent for Millennials than Boomers.” In fact, Boomers and older generations have less frequent in-person interactions with practically all groups except their neighbors, according to the new study.
