چکیده
This paper analyzes subjective well-being in Romania in 2001, 11 years after the collapse of the communism and the beginning of the transition to a market economy. Using a survey among 1770 individuals, we analyze the effects of various variables on self-reported measures of life satisfaction, and find that life satisfaction increases with housing standard, health status, economic situation, education, trusting people and living further from town, while it decreases by unemployment.
