According to a recent study, very few American people say they are “extremely proud” to be citizens.
Only 1% more adults than in 2022 expressed “extreme” pride in the United States, according to Gallup, who found that 39% of individuals said so.
The percentage increased as high as 65%-70% in the years after the 9/11 attacks, from four points higher in 2021 to 16 points higher when Gallup first posed the question in 2001.
Meanwhile, according to a recent Fox News survey, 48% of Americans believe that the country’s finest days are behind us, while only 43% believe that they are still to come.
Since 2012, when only 26% of Americans believed that the greatest days were behind us, pessimism has increased.
According to Gallup, age appears to have a substantial impact on Americans’ sense of national pride in addition to party allegiance.
While 40% of Americans aged 35 to 54 and 18% of those between the ages of 18 and 34 say they are extremely pleased to be Americans, just 50% of Americans aged 55 and older say the same.
According to the most recent results of a June 1–22 Gallup poll, 29% of Democrats and 60% of Republicans both expressed “extreme” satisfaction in being Americans.
The percentage of independent voters was 33%, which is the lowest recorded amount.

The examination of aggregated data from 2020 to 2023 reveals that younger persons in all party groupings are much less proud than older adults of the same political ideology.
