According to a new "happy planet index" published by the New Economics Foundation (NEF). Happy Planet Index

Colombia's in 2nd place (maybe everyone's high there ), India is 62nd, UK is 108th, Oz 139th, US is 150th out of 178 countries.

Global Peace Index

India is 107th, UK is 49th, Oz 27th, US is 97th out of 140 countries.
