As part of ‘What Worries the World’, the market research institute Ipsos asked about the biggest concerns among the Austrian population. Almost all respondents agree on one topic…
The survey shows that 80 percent of the population believes that Austria is on the wrong economic path. Once again, immigration (37 percent), health care (31) and inflation (30) top the new concern rankings. Crime and violence (29) follows closely in fourth place.
The representative survey, conducted in October 2024, shows that concerns about immigration have decreased slightly compared to September, but are still the most pressing issue for the Austrian population.
Despite flooding, the climate plays no role
The issue of climate change (17 percent) is not among the concerns of even a fifth of the population and fell by three percent compared to the previous month. The extreme weather conditions in September are probably forgotten, Ipsos speculated.
The ‘What Worries the World’ survey with 800 respondents also shows that the majority of Austrians assess the current economic situation in Austria as bad. 15 percent of the population even classifies it as very bad, 55 percent as quite bad, across all population groups.
