Dwelling population, persons

Dwelling population, persons. The dwelling population comprises those persons who resided permanently in dwellings on 31 December.

umber of persons at risk of poverty (threshold 60 of median income)

Persons at risk of poverty are considered those whose household's disposable money income per consumption unit (so-called equivalent income) is lower than 60 per cent of the equivalent median money income of all households.

At risk of poverty rate (threshold 60 % of median)

Low-income individuals are those whose household's available cash income per consumption unit (so-called equivalent cash income) is less than 60 percent of the median available cash income of all households' equivalents. The proportion of the population falling below this income threshold is referred to as the low-income rate. The monetary threshold for low income varies annually. This definition is based on recommendations from Eurostat, the statistical office of the European Union.

Number of persons at persistent risk of poverty (threshold 60 % of median)

Persistently low-income individuals are those who are low-income in the statistical year as well as for at least two of the preceding three years.

Share of persons at persistent risk of poverty (threshold 60 of median)

Persistently low-income individuals are those who are low-income in the statistical year as well as for at least two of the preceding three years.

At risk of poverty rate ((threshold anchored to 60 % of 2019 median)

A fixed low-income threshold refers to a monetary low-income threshold that does not change annually (only the change in the value of money is taken into account). Usually, the relative low-income threshold changes in monetary terms annually, if the median income of the entire population changes.

Number of persons at risk of poverty (threshold anchored to 60 % of 2023 median)

Equivalent income, which is the disposable monetary income of a dwelling unit (or economic household) divided by consumption units (Eurostat scale). When the statistical unit is a person, equivalent income describes the level of a person's economic well-being more broadly than personal income.
