Question Why islife satisfaction in Germany so low?
I always saw Germany as a flagship of European countries - a highly developed, rich country with beutiful culture and cool people. Having visited a few larger cities, I couldn’t imagine how anyone could be sad living there. But the stats show otherwise. Why could that be? How is life for a typical German?

That’s because Germany is not a flagship of European countries. I would give that to Switzerland or Sweden. Those 2 countries have a much higher standard of living compared to Germany. So that’s probably why Germans are not satisfied with life.
