Définition

Satisfaction in life, assessed on a scale from 0 "not at all satisfied" to 10 "completely satisfied", is a measure of people's subjective well-being.

Until 2019, in the 'Statistics on Income and Living Conditions' (SILC) survey, satisfaction was also measured in complementary domains: housing and its environment, work, leisure, personal relationships. In 2020, satisfaction was only measured in the first three domains; moreover, satisfaction related to housing and its environment was dissociated to measure on the one hand satisfaction related to housing and on the other hand satisfaction related to the living environment.
