In 2022, a survey conducted by the National Statistics Office, as part of the annual European Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC), revealed insights into the health and well-being of individuals residing in private households across Malta and Gozo. According to the findings, a significant majority, 76.7%, perceived their general health positively. However, 31% of the respondents reported suffering from chronic illnesses or conditions, underscoring a notable health concern within the community.

The survey also delved into aspects of personal satisfaction, employing a scale from 0 (not satisfied at all) to 10 (completely satisfied). Personal relationships received an impressive average score of 8.6, indicating a high level of contentment in this area. Time use and financial satisfaction scored an average of 6.8, reflecting a more varied sense of satisfaction among respondents.

Interestingly, the data highlighted a disparity in satisfaction levels between those at risk of poverty or social exclusion and their more secure counterparts. Respondents facing challenges reported lower satisfaction across various life aspects, except for time use, where they indicated higher satisfaction.

Emotional well-being was also part of the survey, with 58% of respondents frequently feeling happy, while 31% sometimes experienced nervousness or agitation. These findings offer a comprehensive snapshot of the general health, well-being, and satisfaction levels within the community, emphasising the impact of socioeconomic status on overall life satisfaction.
