63 percent of young people under the age of 30 are optimistic about the year 2023, according to research by the Mária Kopp Institute for Population and Families (KINCS).
According to a survey carried out at the end of last year - between November 30 and December 8 - with a telephone survey of a thousand people, almost half of Hungarians (45 percent) are optimistic about the new year.
Among those surveyed, young people under the age of 30 are the most optimistic about the future. Besides them, women, mothers with young children and those raising three or more children are more optimistic than average, they wrote.
In the announcement, it was stated that
"they have reason to be optimistic, as new family support measures will help them in 2023: among others, the exemption from social security for mothers under the age of 30, the forgiveness of student loans in case of childbearing, the extended childcare and village choc".
The research reveals that those surveyed expect the greatest improvement in the epidemic situation, nearly a third trust in the improvement of the war situation, and every fifth person expects the energy situation to improve.
"Every sixth person can be considered more pessimistic about the economic situation caused by the Brussels sanctions, inflation and the general development of the standard of living, but it is also interesting that they are much more optimistic about their personal life, eight out of ten respondents are optimistic"
- they highlighted.
A third of them believe that their financial opportunities and standard of living will improve in 2023, while roughly half of the respondents expect unchanged conditions in their own lives, they added.
According to the survey, they expect the greatest stability in their family relationships and living conditions.
"The majority of people believe that their sense of happiness and general mood will be the same or better in 2023 than it was in 2022," it said.
