Australia's life dissatisfaction levels double as 'wellbeing poverty' reaches new highs

Australia is experiencing a significant decline in life satisfaction, with nearly 2.2 million people now living below the wellbeing poverty line and one in 10 Australians rating their life satisfaction at four or below out of 10. This represents a doubling of very low life satisfaction rates over the past decade, though community cohesion and trust continue to provide some positive contributions to overall happiness levels.
