Now you have come to the page, Choose variable. This page give you the oportunity to select which variables and values you want to display in your result of the table. A variable is a property of a statistical unit. The page is divided into several boxes, one for each variable, where you can select values by click to highlight one or more values. It always starts with the statistics variable which is the main value counted in the table.

The at-risk-of-poverty rate is the share of people with an equivalised disposable income (after social transfer) below the at-risk-of-poverty threshold, which is set at 60 % of the national median equivalised disposable income after social transfers.
This indicator does not measure wealth or poverty, but low income in comparison to other residents in that country, which does not necessarily imply a low standard of living.
Estimates for 2019-2021 are preliminary.

Unit

Rate of individuals (%)

The results come from Statistics on Income and Living conditions survey (SILC). The general research unit in SILC is the household. The sample is drawn on a random basis from the National Registry of Persons. The selected respondent provides all information about the living conditions of the household, their own conditions and the conditions of all other household members. Here the data is analysed at the individual level and the circumstances of the houshold are assumed to apply for all individuals belonging to that household.

Rate lower bounds (%)

The results come from Statistics on Income and Living conditions survey that is based on a sample of the population and therefore there is uncertainty surrounding the results. To estimate this uncertainty confidence intervals are calculated. The confidence interval estimates how exactly the sample value represents the true value of the population. With 95% certainty the true estimate is contained within the upper and the lower bounds.
The 95% confidence interval used here does not fall below 0 and is assymmetrical, ie. the lower and upper bounds can be unequal.

Rate upper bounds (%)

The results come from Statistics on Income and Living conditions survey that is based on a sample of the population and therefore there is uncertainty surrounding the results. To estimate this uncertainty confidence intervals are calculated. The confidence interval estimates how exactly the sample value represents the true value of the population. With 95% certainty the true estimate is contained within the upper and the lower bounds.
