The UN HDI is a statistical measure that gauges an economy's level of human development. While there is a strong correlation between having a high HDI score and being a prosperous economy, the UN points out that the HDI accounts for more than income or productivity. Unlike GDP per capita or per capita income, the HDI takes into account how income is turned "into education and health opportunities and therefore into higher levels of human development."

Since 1990, [[Norway]] (2001–2006, 2009–2019), [[Japan]] (1990–1991 and 1993), [[Canada]] (1992 and 1994–2000) and [[Iceland]] (2007–2008) have had the highest HDI score.

The following countries in the year 2023 are considered to be of "very high human development":<ref name="2022 components32">{{cite book |url=https://hdr.undp.org/content/human-development-report-2025 |title=Human Development Report 2025 - A matter of choice: People and possibilities in the age of AI |date=6 May 2025 |publisher=United Nations Development Programme |isbn= |publication-date=6 May 2025 |pages= |access-date=6 May 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250506064128/https://hdr.undp.org/content/human-development-report-2025 |archive-date=6 May 2025}}</ref>

San Marino (2012) and Andorra (2021) were later included in the IMF's list.<ref name=cia />
