Trump Breaks Another Record: 90% of Americans Satisfied with Personal Life

February 6, 2020 By The Editors

A Gallup poll that has been conducted since the 1970s has just released record-breaking results. Of those polled, 90% said they were satisfied with their personal life. That’s two points higher than the previous record set at 88% in 2003. The same poll recorded a 20-year high in American confidence in the economy. The poll’s results have been trending upward since the election of Donald Trump. Gallup’s Justin McCarthy writes:

These results are from Gallup’s Mood of the Nation poll, conducted Jan. 2-15, which also recorded a 20-year high in Americans’ confidence in the U.S. economy. The percentage of Americans who report being satisfied with their personal life is similar to the 86% who said in December that they were very or fairly happy — though the happiness figure, while high, is on the low end of what Gallup has measured historically for that question.

Despite some variation, solid majorities of Americans have reported being satisfied with their personal life over the past few decades, with an average of 83% satisfied since 1979. The historical low of 73% was recorded in July 1979, as the effects of that year’s oil crisis took a toll on U.S. motorists. During that poll’s fielding dates, then-President Jimmy Carter delivered his “malaise speech,” which was interpreted by some as placing blame on Americans themselves for the rough economic spot the country was in.

A 2019 survey on 10 aspects of Americans’ lives found that they are most satisfied with their family life, their education and the way they spend their leisure time — and least satisfied with the amount of leisure time they have, their household income and their job.
