Are We Happy Yet?

Alas, only so-so. Just a third (34%) of adults in this country say they're very happy, according to the latest Pew Research Center survey. Another half say they are pretty happy and 15% consider themselves not too happy. These numbers have remained very stable for a very long time.

But some of us are happier than others, and this variance helps to paint a portrait of the kind of people Americans are.
