Hungarians are less satisfied with their lives than the OECD average, according to a report published by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). When asked to rate their general satisfaction with life on a scale from 0 to 10, the average rating by Hungarian citizens was 4.9, well below the average OECD rating of 6.6. Hungary ranks below average in social connections, earnings and wealth, housing and jobs. The report says that the country has one of the lowest levels of household disposable income per capita out of the 34 countries rated by the OECD, and one of the lowest levels of average earnings. Also life expectancy in Hungary is among the lowest of the OECD countries, with only 57 percent of adults rating their health as good or better than good.
