WORLD HAPPINESS DATA Considerations
Happiness Score: Uses a 3-year rolling average to reduce year-to-year fluctuations from smaller samples and major short-term events (live Covid-19).
Covid-19: Covid-19 period data - 2020 to 2023, as defined by WHO - is included and may reflect pandemic-related impacts.
Missing Years: Some years of data are unavailable for Belize, Haiti, and Trinidad and Tobago due to incomplete survey coverage in the World Happiness Report dataset.
Venezuela: Some periods are missing GDP explanatory data for Venezuela. In these cases, GDP may appear as 0 in visualizations, but Happiness Scores are still available (without GDP as an explanatory factor).
