US Falls to No. 23 in World Happiness Report, Lagging Nordic Countries

The U.S. failed to crack the top 20 in the latest World Happiness Report, ranking No. 23 behind Nordic and Western European nations, with Finland at the top (7.76) and the United States at 6.82 (down 0.27 from last year). Costa Rica is No. 4 and Israel No. 8. The rankings derive from the Gallup World Poll across 147 countries, using a 0–10 life-satisfaction ladder and considering factors like GDP per capita, life expectancy, generosity, freedom, and perceived corruption. Notably, happiness among Americans under 25 has fallen by nearly a full point over the past decade.

A numbers-driven preview of the Indiana–Miami national championship game: Indiana has 1 fumble lost to Miami’s 3, and the Hoosiers have posted strong first- and second-half scoring margins; Miami leads with 47 sacks to Indiana’s 45, and both teams sit among the national leaders in time of possession. Miami has defeated seven ranked opponents this season, while Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza is climbing the program’s TD list and Malachi Toney nears 100 receptions. The winner likely finishes No. 1 in the final AP Top 25, adding historical context to the matchup.
