Best Countries To Live, In 2014 by afroprofile: 10:51pm On Jan 07, 2014
1. Australia: 7.95



If you want to move up in the world, go Down Under. In Australia, they live long and well. Life expectancy at birth in Australia stands at 82 years, which is two years more than the average. The Ozzies are more involved with their government than any other country, with an unprecedented 9.5/10 for Civic Engagement. It looks like democracy works, at least for Australians; they’ve got a high level of life satisfaction, a very high level of safety and are generally in very good health. They work hard though, and their work-life balance is lower than most of the countries in the top 10. All things considered though – including housing, education, income and jobs – Australia tops the list as the country with the highest level of well-being in the world, ranking just slightly above Sweden. It’s no wonder Oz is one of the countries with the highest rates of immigration in the world

2. Sweden: 7.95



Sweden is a nation of academics, with an over 10% higher than average rate of high school graduates. Unusually, though, the level of literacy is slightly lower than the average – which goes to show that statistics can be deceiving! Sweden is at number 2 on our list because it doesn’t rank particularly low in any of the categories for overall well-being; with a good score on Civic Engagement, a high level of life satisfaction, a great environment and a positive work/life balance, Sweden is an attractive choice for the ambitious traveller.
