The New Year is less than a week away and it sure looks as though most folks will be happy to see 2021 over and done with.

A new YouGov poll finds:

  • Nearly two-thirds of Americans do not describe 2021 favorably.
    • 35% say it was a “bad” year for the country.
    • 30% say it was a “terrible” year for the country.
    • Only 19% would describe it as an “okay” year.
    • 8% would say it was “good.”
    • 5% would say it was “great.”

When it comes to them personally:

  • 31% say it was a bad or terrible year.
  • 41% say it was okay.
  • 19% say it was a good year.
  • 5% actually describe it as a great year for them.
