Purely a matter of luck: Kassel on the ground of facts

The article discusses Kassel's drop in ranking in the SKL Happiness Atlas, moving from first place to 13th among 40 German cities. It notes that while Kassel's average happiness score decreased slightly, this is due to other cities improving rather than Kassel becoming less happy. The proportion of dissatisfied residents remains very low, but the share of highly satisfied residents has decreased, indicating a shift from euphoria to more stable satisfaction. The article suggests that overall happiness is often overestimated.
