Household Income & Expenditure
Although people earn salaries as individuals, they live as households. For this reason, in many contexts, it is actually more important for policymakers to understand household rather than individual income. To enable this, we conduct the Household Income and Expenditure Survey twice within any period of 5 years. This dashboard displays the findings of the latest survey, conducted in 2022.
