Stockholm Wellbeing Index 6.87
18 September, 2025
As a first step towards Wellbeing Growth in Stockholm we have created and measured a Wellbeing Index among people living in Stockholm. The results are presented in our newly released Stockholm Wellbeing Index Report. There we also present the WEC (Wellbeing Equality Coefficient) and the Coffee Indicator, two unique metrics that indicate the state and potential of the people in our city.
The report is created together with SBR, Stockhom Chamber of Commerce and Region Stockholm. The Stockholm Wellbeing Index is measured quarterly and will be an important tool to highlight potential and to follow up initiatives taken to improve wellbeing and happiness in our fantastic hometown.
Highlights from the report.
- Stockholm has a Wellbeing Index of 6.87 (out of 10).
- Wellbeing in Stockholm is relatively equally distributed, with a Wellbeing Equality Coefficient (WEC) of 14.4.
