People at Risk of Poverty or Social Exclusion in the EU
Share of the population at risk of poverty or social exclusion (AROPE), latest year, %
Plays the chart through its history. Pauses are where a new leader takes first place.
Eurostat, EU-SILC (ilc_peps01n), Europe 2030 definition: income below three-fifths of the national median, severe material and social deprivation, or very low household work intensity. The poverty line is relative to each country’s own median income. Images draw the highest and lowest bars; the page and the data table list every country.
The share of people in each EU country at risk of poverty or social exclusion, the EU’s headline poverty measure. Bulgaria, Greece and Romania are near the top; Czechia, Poland and Slovenia have the lowest rates.
