Hong Kong’s Generation Y unhappiest amid housing and economic pressures, poll finds
Key Points
Hong Kong’s Generation Y residents – those aged 30 to 45 – are the city’s unhappiest age group, largely because of dissatisfaction with economic and housing conditions, a poll has found. A survey of 1,039 adults by HK.WeCare, a platform set up under the non-profit organisation Wofoo Social Enterprises, put the Hong Kong Happiness Index at 5.87 out of 10. The score remained below the passing level for a fourth consecutive year, despite an overall upwards trend since 2024.
