Among the rural residents who felt very unhappy, relatively unhappy, relatively happy, and very happy in the sense of happiness, the significance values were 0.058, 0.051, 0.049, 0.075, and 0.048, respectively. The degree of inclusiveness had a most significant impact on the relatively unhappy groups.【Conclusion】The government should continuously increase the financial investment in the adequacy of rural public services and optimize the resource allocation.
