The Australian Unity Wellbeing Index was released early this week. Compiled by Professor Robert Cummins of Deakin University and sponsored by Australian Unity, the index seeks to rate life satisfaction in seven areas: standard of living, health, relationships, achievement in life, safety, community connection and future security. The results of the surveys were broken down into federal electorate divisions. My own division of Cook—which runs from Cronulla in the east to Sutherland in the north and is bordered to the north and the south respectively by Georges River and Port Hacking—rated very highly in terms of overall wellbeing.
