Recommended
The percentage of U.S. adults who anticipate high-quality lives in five years declined to 59.2% in 2025, the lowest level since measurement began in 2008.
Americans value housing, their loved ones and health most. While specific experiences, such as financial security, are associated with quality-of-life ratings, doing what one values is linked to a positive perception of life.
Purpose drives employee engagement and retention, but most workplaces undervalue it, and many U.S. employees say their jobs fall short of providing purpose.
Worldwide, economic issues dominate people's views of their country's most important problem.
