🌐 Livability Score
One composite verdict from 5 of 5 World Bank series (life expectancy, under-5 mortality, electricity access, clean-water access, homicide rate), each benchmarked against every country tracking that series. A missing series never silently drags the score down: its weight redistributes across the series Russian Federation does report.

What the data says about Russian Federation
Russian Federation sits in the high-income bracket but outside the OECD's harmonized reporting network, so its statistics come straight from the World Bank, WHO, and ILO source series rather than a jointly reconciled OECD dataset - still official, but with less cross-checking between agencies than an OECD member gets. Its large population means national averages here can flatten meaningful differences between regions, so a single indicator rarely tells the whole story. Treating any single figure as definitive is a mistake in particular; the fuller picture comes from comparing Russian Federation against income-tier peers of a similar scale.
Russian Federation sits in the middle third of GDP/cap (#84 of 214) as a HIC economy with LONG longevity.
Russian Federation holds 143.5 million people and $2.2 trillion GDP (11th) at $14,889 per person - mid GDP/cap band, HIC, LE 73.4 years (122nd, LONG). 47 WDI/WHO/ILO cells fill the topic blocks.
