Nový prieskum predstavuje takmer 200 komunít v USA na základe blaha ich obyvateľov.
Výsledky sú založené na prieskume blahobytu, ktorý v roku 2015 a 2016 uskutočnila spoločnosť Gallup-Healthways. Prieskum zahŕňal ľudí v 189 oblastiach metra a skóre sa spriemerovalo za dvojročné obdobie.
V prieskume sa výskumníci zúčastnili rozhovorov s viac ako 354 000 dospelými v USA vo všetkých 50 štátoch. Vedci vypočítali skóre pohody pre každú komunitu na základe odpovedí účastníkov na otázky týkajúce sa rôznych aspektov ich pohody, vrátane ich zmyslu pre účel, sociálnych vzťahov, finančného života, zapojenia komunity a fyzického zdravia.
