Top 10 countries offering best quality of life in 2024

The Quality of Life Index by Country 2024 research provides insights into the changing global living conditions. In an increasingly interconnected world, both residents and nations highlight and recognize the importance of improving quality of life.

Although traditional economic measurements such as GDP are crucial parameters, in this fast-paced world, many other aspects such as healthcare, safety, and social amenities also have a big impact on quality of life and where people choose to live. Needless to say, the quality of daily life is critical, as it ultimately influences the nature of individuals and their experiences.


The concept of quality of life is multidimensional, encompassing both objective and subjective factors. According to the United Nations, about 232 million people worldwide migrate in search of better living conditions.

Inter Nations published the Expat Insider 2024 report earlier this year, highlighting nations with the best living conditions for expats.

Notably, European countries top the list, followed by two from the Middle East and three from Asia.
So, the top 10 countries that managed to get a spot in this list are:

Spain
Austria
UAE
Qatar
Luxembourg
Japan
Portugal
Denmark
Singapore
South Korea

For the third year in a row, Spain has taken the top spot in the 2024 Quality of Life Index. It is a well-liked option for expatriates due to its recreational options, easily accessible healthcare, and reasonably priced public transit.

India managed to grab the second to last out of all the listed countries with a Quality of Life Index, and ranked 52nd. Although it fared well in the healthcare subcategory, India is facing serious problems with air quality that has negatively affected its total ranking. However, the cost and availability of healthcare in India are usually appreciated by foreigners, which helped the country to score extra points.
