Barometru: Calitatea vieții, mai proastă pentru o treime dintre români în 2026

A recent survey indicates that one-third of Romanians feel their quality of life has declined over the past year, primarily due to financial pressures. The IRES Barometer shows a decrease in the perception of well-being, with the index dropping to 6.2 out of 10. While 51% previously expected an improvement in their well-being, now 55% report a decline. Satisfaction with personal income has notably decreased, and 60% cite low income and high prices as major obstacles to a better life. Additionally, nearly 32% of respondents feel their quality of life has worsened, compared to 19% last year.
