Arab world quality of life mid-2026
The Mid-2026 Quality of Life Index, issued by Numbeo, shows that the Gulf countries lead the Arab rankings. Oman ranked third worldwide with a total score of 203.9 points, surpassing most European and Asian countries, thanks to a balance of safety, affordable housing costs, and short commuting times. The UAE came in third among Arab countries and 29th globally with an index score of 168.5 points, excelling in safety. Meanwhile, most Gulf states experienced declines due to geopolitical developments, with some losing around 10-11% of their points. In contrast, the Mashriq and North African countries rank lower, with Lebanon at 78th globally with 97.5 points, and Egypt ranked 84th with 85.4 points. There is significant variation in the quality of life index due to factors such as weak purchasing power, high pollution levels, and difficulties in obtaining suitable housing. It should be noted that this index reflects daily life standards and efficiency, based on data collected from users and official sources, and does not capture all aspects of well-being.
