Statistical bulletin: Personal well-being in the UK: April 2017 to March 2018
Estimates of life satisfaction, feeling that the things done in life are worthwhile, happiness and anxiety at the UK, country, regional and local authority level.
This latest publication identifies how factors such as health, access to services and crime levels may affect how people rate their well-being in different parts of the UK. This can help local authorities and other organisations to better understand where services could be targeted to help improve the well-being of people in their area.
