Brisbane residents are the happiest in the country, according to research commissioned by Brisbane City Council.
Brisbane residents reported a 93 per cent quality-of-life rating on the study, compared with Melbourne and Perth residents, who reported an 89 per cent rating, and Sydney residents, who reported a 76 per cent rating.
Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner says that the survey, conducted by Kantar Public Australia, will be part of a new annual Better Brisbane Index, which will assess the happiness of the city’s residents.
