87.2% say their neighbors care about their wellbeing

More than eight in ten respondents in Indonesia said their neighbors care about them and their wellbeing a lot or somewhat.

People · Generations · Financial milestones

The “maybe later” economy.

Housing, education, work and family choices increasingly collide with financial pressure. PolisMetric keeps the U.S. Pew benchmark separate from Deloitte’s same-wave Gen Z and millennial country evidence so unlike questions are never forced into one ranking.

Financial milestones: country evidence not yet available
Evidence gap

No source-verified 2026 country topline is published here yet for Indonesia.

No country-specific 2026 financial-milestones topline has been source-verified for publication in the current governed pass. Missing is not estimated.

Missing is kept missing — never estimated, copied from a regional average or treated as zero.
Same-question international comparison

Financial pressure is delaying major life decisions.

These 15 country results come from the same Deloitte 2026 survey wave and the same question. Paired dots show published percentages for Gen Z and millennials; the connector shows the gap. This is not a quality ranking. Countries without a verified national value remain outside the ranking.

Deloitte Global 2026 Gen Z and Millennial Survey · fielded Nov. 24, 2025–Jan. 15, 2026 · online self-complete survey. The global study includes 22,595 respondents in 44 countries; this chart contains only source-verified country cuts in the current PolisMetric evidence pass.

People Intelligence · Indonesia · Young women

Political divides and mental health — measured as separate evidence streams.

PolisMetric does not assume that the U.S. pattern applies everywhere. For Indonesia, political or gender-attitude evidence is shown only when a governed source supports it, and mental-health evidence is kept methodologically separate. An association is never inferred merely because both measures appear on the same page.

Mental-health evidence

Young-adult mind-health position

Ages 18–34 · 2024–2025

Sapien Labs' Global Mind Project ranks Indonesia's internet-enabled 18–34 population at #6 of 84. This is a young-adult country context, not a women-only result and not a depression prevalence estimate.

Global young-adult referenceMHQ 36 · 41% distressed/strugglingGlobal 18–34 reference from the same report; not a national value for Indonesia.
Interpretation ruleDo not turn two separate datasets into a causal story.

Political ideology, party affiliation, feminist self-identification, psychological distress and MHQ are different constructs. Cross-country cultural and sampling differences also matter. PolisMetric keeps the measures separate unless a single defensible study directly estimates their relationship in the same population.

POLISMETRICEvidence before narrative
Source & method

Country values are never filled from regional or global averages. Ipsos' Gen Z numbers are shown only as a labeled 29-country benchmark. The Global Mind Project reflects internet-enabled populations and cautions that MHQ differences of up to five points can fall within sampling noise.

Indonesia: who people trusted for health advice.

A directly comparable baseline from the Wellcome Global Monitor. “Most trusted source,” trust in government advice, and trust in medical workers are kept as separate measures. The survey was fielded in 2018; newer country-specific evidence is shown separately when a governed source is available.

The Wellcome report states that its data and text are distributed under CC BY with attribution; report images are excluded. PolisMetric uses original charts and does not reproduce Wellcome’s graphic design.

Country percentages use the public within-country survey weight (wgt) and the full weighted country sample denominator, matching Wellcome's published country convention. Q21/Q22 combine 'A lot' + 'Some'. Don't know/refused responses remain in the denominator and are preserved as missing-response metadata; unavailable questions remain null and are never converted to zero. Fieldwork: April–December 2018. This supplemental module does not count as five independent People sources.
