[QUOTE="douglas99, post: 1493888, member: 38028"] It's relative for this study. Simply the GDP per capita averaged over the European Union. This gives you a base line, set at 100. 'poverty' in this study simply meant the lowest figures in the areas included. (From memory, even though we're second as a country overall, if you carefully select the areas to compare, we come out at the bottom in some regions. We also come out in the top ten in others, so we do have a regional split. But the spending power is still over 55 in the worst region if I remember correctly. If you look at some countries, Moldova for example, I think it's about 15 across the entire country, by comparison) [/QUOTE]
