The top source of happiness in Russia in 2019 were people's living conditions, as per 89 percent of respondents participating in a survey by Ipsos. A feeling that their life had a meaning made 88 percent of Russians happy, being the second most popular answer. While family- and relationship-related matters were the top sources of greatest happiness across the country, in general terms, the major five sources were focused on rather individual happiness stemming from hobbies and interests, financial situation, and employment.
* The original question was formulated by the source as follows: "Does or could [the source] give me greatest happiness, does or could give me some happiness, doesn't or couldn't make me happy or happier, does not apply to me?" The presented figures represent 11 sources of happiness with the highest share of respondents choosing answers "greatest happiness" or "some happiness."
According to the source, the population sample in Russia is "more urban, more
educated and/or more affluent than the general population and the
results should be viewed as reflecting the views of a more “connected”
population."
Bayesian Credibility Interval was set at +/-4.8 points.
