These Nationalities Have The Best Quality Of Life In The World, 2016

Germany ranked number 1 among nationalities with the best quality of life

Looking at 161 nationalities across the world, Henley & Partners has released a new ranking of nationalities “The Quality of Nationality Index” to show which have the best and worst quality of living globally.

Quality of life isn’t just about economics — it’s about country’s economy, nationals freedom of travel, work opportunities, stability, and a slew of other factors, at least according to the authors of a new index. Germany is leading the ranking.

The study differentiates nationality from country by considering how easy it is for citizens to travel without a visa and live and work abroad.

Based on these factors, each nationality was issued with a score between 0% – 100%. The higher the score, the better the quality of living.

It’s no surprise that Germany ranks No. 1 on the list which is reflected by figures that German nationals hold the strongest passport with visa-free access to 177 countries, also rated highly for their ability to live and work abroad easily and travel to a large number of countries without a visa.

Danish nationals enjoy the 2nd best quality of life with a score of 83%, followed by the Finnish, who have a score of 82%.
