The city of Busan has recently released the Busan citizens’ satisfaction rate report after surveying over 30,000 citizens above the age of 15 from September to October of last year.

On average, Busan citizens said that they would give living here a six out of ten. In 2020, Busan citizens gave living here a 5.8 out of 10, and a 5.9 out of 10 in 2021.

When those between 15 and 39 years old were asked if they had plans to move to another city, surprisingly, 82% said that they did not. Only 18% of them said that they would move to a different city. When asked why they would move, over 60% said that they would leave to find more job opportunities. 

When the participants were asked, “what is the most satisfying thing about Busan?” they responded with the beautiful green environment. On the other hand, they said that the noise in the city was the least satisfying part of Busan.
