Hi, I think you should understand socioeconomic status and how that can directly influence the scores you see there. Strictly showing averages doesn't really mean shit as there is likely sub-sets of these group that could be considered outliers (I can guarantee that).
Also in saying this, most governments have some kind of epidemiology department of which that obtain data which can explain these results in clearer sense. More of less, you'll find that studies like this usually conclude that socioeconomic status is the main culprit here, which comes in many forms, but for some insight:
Pretty much a quick summary (and why governments usually bang on about keeping the economy going so much), your economy does influence quality of life. However even with a strong economy, factors like corruption which actions that would further a wealth gap negatively impact quality of life.
