More than half of Bulgarians fear economic difficulties in 2022, data of a global survey conducted by Gallup International between October and December indicate. Bulgaria is among the top 5 pessimists, together with Turkey, Afghanistan, Poland and Czechia.
Only 6% of Bulgarians expect economic prosperity for their country in the year to come, while 64% of the polled are of the opposite opinion. 19% of the respondents expect the upcoming year to be the same in terms of economic prosperity. Only 15% of the respondents are expecting a better year and 48% of the polled are expecting a worse year. Thus, Bulgaria places second after Turkey and ahead of Afghanistan, but this country is not far from the EU average.
Sociologists from Gallup International report a slight increase in personal happiness. 45% of Bulgarians consider themselves happy or very happy. 10% of the respondents consider themselves unhappy or very unhappy. 43% of the polled feel neither happy nor unhappy and 2% of the respondents are undecided.
