OK, it isn't Disneyland, Vanuatu, Denmark or even Tijuana, but according to a recent survey, Al Ain (along with Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain) is the happiest place in the UAE, with 56% of people reporting that they are happy. What is really interesting is that people in Buraimi, just across the fence in Oman, are happy at an 88% rate, despite having less money. I guess that it is true that money can't buy happiness.
Just a guess, but these people were probably in the 44%.
