The Annual Population Survey published earlier this month showed estimates of personal well-being on four major grounds – happiness, life satisfaction, anxiety and the feeling that things done in life are worthwhile.

Newham has the highest level of happiness in London in the year ending March 2023 – scoring 8 out of 10.

Redbridge ranked fourth, Havering ranked sixth, Barking and Dagenham ranked ninth, while Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest were the bottom two for happiness in this period.
