Map created by Landgeist

The map above shows what percentage of people in each EU member state think that the EU has benefited their country. As Landgesit explains:

The exact question in the survey was: “Taking everything into account, would you say that (OUR COUNTRY) has on balance benefited or not from being a member of the EU?”. People could answer this question with “Benefited”, “Not benefited” or “Don’t know”.

Ireland, Luxembourg and Lithuania are notable in their support with over 90% thinking their country had benefited from the EU. Austria was the lone country with support below 60%, although even there a majority (54%) thought they had benefited from membership.

The EU average was 72%.

The data comes from the EP Autumn 2021 Eurobarometer survey taken between November and December 2021.

Below is the support level by country:

  1. Ireland: 95%
  2. Luxembourg: 92%
  3. Lithuania: 91%
