Gallup Well Being Index- How are we doing?
 
Interesting Gallup data. You can see how we are doing as a nation or state by state. I'm still combing the data but its interesting to look at the Dec 2008 point in relation to Jan 2009 and how through all this bad economic times we're still feeling better then late 2008.
Official blip "The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index™ has been developed to provide the official measure for health and well-being. It's the voice of Americans and the most ambitious effort ever undertaken to measure what people believe constitutes a good life."

Of course. No District of Columbia. F this survey.

Washington DC isn't a state. :)

I just sent them an email asking that question and also about all US territories.

BTW-I'm in Northern Va. so I understand your frustration.

Don't get me started. :)

And, besides, it is listed on all of the other metrics on the Gallup link, except for the Well Being Index. Even if not a state, it is part of the United States of America. More so than territories.

While Washington D.C. is not included in the individual state report findings because its not a state, individuals from this area are representative in the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index sample and; thus, overall findings. You can take a look at this area by reviewing the Virginia, Maryland or other neighboring areas. Visit Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index - Findings: City, State & Congressional District Rankings.

That appeases me some. :) (Being able to see the DC metro area as compared to other metro areas)

I never knew how much life sucks for me until I read the numbers for my city.
