A third of Ukrainians hope for an improvement in family and national prosperity next year – survey
The majority of Ukrainians have experienced a decline in their own economic situation over the last half year, for 35% it has remained the same

A third of Ukrainians expect an improvement in the country's economic situation and their own prosperity next year.
This is evidenced by the results of a survey conducted by the Rating sociological group.
According to the survey, 59% of Ukrainians have felt a deterioration in their own economic situation over the past six months, for 35% it has remained unchanged, only 6% have felt an improvement. The assessments of the situation in Ukraine in general are worse: 75% have felt a deterioration, 14% – talk about the absence of changes, 8% – about improvement.
Despite this, speaking about the country's economy in the future, respondents have more positive expectations: 35% expect improvement, 28% – think that nothing will change, 26% expect deterioration.
Regarding their personal situation, 31% hope that their personal economic situation will improve next year, 39% believe that it will not change, 17% – have pessimistic views on this.
As sociologists note, although the number of those who felt improvement did not increase dynamically, however, compared to the situation a year ago, negative assessments have somewhat decreased (from 75% in July 2022 to 59% now) due to the increase in the category of those who note the absence of changes. The same decrease was observed in negative assessments of the situation in Ukraine (from 36% to 26%) along with an increase in the number of those who did not notice changes.
Besides, in the issue of future expectations both for oneself and for the country, there is an increase in the number of those who expect stability and a decrease in the number of those who expect deterioration.
Background. The majority of Ukrainians are not satisfied with their job and income level. At the same time, 76% of respondents earn less than 20,000 UAH per month, in particular 53% – less than 10,000 UAH.
