Do unemployment, religiosity, or morality play a role in people's perception of happiness and well-being? Using large-scale survey data from more than 70 countries, Olga Stavrova shows that happiness to a large extent is conditional on a match between individuals' attributes and the socio-cultural characteristics of the environment they live in.
