Furthermore, the low levels of air pollution, abundance of social activities, well regulated working environment, access to pristine natural areas and arts and culture give Oans a quality of life. Metrics of happiness are surprisingly difficult to collect and study. The most reputable attempts include the National Quality of Life Satisfaction Index conducted by the Department of Home Affairs in 2020 states that among a representative sample of 5,000 people, 75% are extremely satisfied, 24% are satisfied, 1.8% are dissatisfied and 0.2% are extremely dissatisfied with their lives in the Oan Isles. Some of the dampeners of the quality of life in the Oan Isles include the population density, intensity of the rainy season, the late age at which people get married and have children because of social norms, and the anxiety around natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions and floods.
