Oh let's look at the methodology

Ok, seems reasonable... weird that Spain is so high though
>Life expectancy at birth

That's just retarded

And UK is #1? Hmm...
>Job security (measured by the unemployment rate)
Makes sense
>Climate (measured by two variables: the average deviation of minimum and maximum monthly temperatures from 14 degrees Celsius; and the number of months in the year with less than 30mm rainfall)
LOL
>Personal physical security ratings (based primarily on recorded homicide rates and ratings for risk from crime and terrorism)
Ok
>Quality of community life (based on membership in social organisations)
LOL
>Governance (measured by ratings for corruption)
Hmm
>Gender equality (measured by the share of seats in parliament held by women)

I agree with that one. Even with a top salary and stuff I wouldn't want to live a place where is rainy/cloudy 24/7 and half of the year you can't go outside without 7 layers of clothes.

But yeah, the quality of community life and gender equality seem like pretty shitty indicators.

I dunno. Living in a nice climate is a factor in one's quality of life. Why do you think people move to places like Australia, Spain or California from colder climate, and why do you think we idealise tropical beaches over creepy, silent boreal forests or green fields and hedgerows over blistering, sun blasted deserts? All other factors being equal, living near a nice beach in a warm climate is better than living in the midst of a featureless expanse of swampy forest which gets ice blasted in winter and beset by gigantic mosquitoes and insane heat in summer.
>>
>>52412890
Sure.
>>
>>52413301
I seem to think of temperate countries as paradise, considering I've spent my entire life in a shitty tropical island.

I don't find pictures of tropical islands in the Caribbean and Pacific as enticing as I did before.

So you could say people just get tired of what they're used to.
>>
>>52411730
lol

>>52413301
If that's the case we are worse. We are surrounded freezing cold mountains and forests everywhere and during summer the heat is unbearable for work. That's about climate, as for life quality...haha.

>>52413428

If your tropical island was as rich as Iceland, had the same levels of transparency etc that Iceland had and was basically indistinguishable excepting the fact of climate, who would you say had the better quality of life?

Do you see what I'm saying? Climate isn't the only factor, but it is a factor.
>>
>>52413804
I've been to temperate countries for rather long periods of time during both summer and winter, and IMO winter wasn't bad at all while summer was pretty much exactly the same as a normal day is here.
But I haven't experienced "actual" life in a temperate country, so I guess I might not be able to make a proper judgment.
>>
>>52413677
I certainly agree with you. I have been to the tropics, and they were, fine. But it was not really nice feeling. The place I was did not really seem to have seasons, it was hot for my tastes and I did not really find it enjoyable. Interesting, perhaps, but not to live there.

I like to have snow. To have rain. Seasons. I like it too be cold outside, and if sometimes it is annoyingly hot as well, that is acceptable. Temperate, or colder than that, seems quite attractive to me.

I can see there being some sort of view on perhaps living past or close to the Arctic circle--I have seen studies that suggested that the lack of daylight has actual effects on peoples moods. But mere temperature? and based on the so arbitary figure of 14C? That seems silly.

Pretty much this. An equatorial climate and an arctic climate are both shit, but something right in the middle would be perfect.

>>52413804
If I were faced with the choice of moving to your hypothetical tropical Iceland, and real cold northern Iceland, I think I would move to the cold one. It is possible that I am in the minority, but I honestly would not really like to move to the tropics (it is of course possible that my view of that region has been influenced by other factors than temperature, and that with the addition of a very modern and progressive country there, my view would change somewhat at least).
