When housing takes more than 40% — mapped

Compare reported percentages across 30 economies in 2025. Grey areas have no retained value.

When housing takes more than 40% — mappedPercentage of the population living in households where total housing costs, net of housing allowances, exceed 40% of total disposable household income, net of housing allowances. Map reported percentages for one shared year using fixed bands. Reported zero and missing values have separate colours. No interpolation is applied. Select the newest year with at least half the highest annual count of reporting economies in this retained dataset (18 minimum). Missing values are excluded from the ranking and remain in the table; ties sort by geography code.WORLD SIGNAL MONITOR / VISUAL STORIESWhen housing takes more than 40% — mappedGeographic comparison · 2025 · % of populationFiji: No reported valueTanzania: No reported valueW.

How to read this diagram

Percentage of the population living in households where total housing costs, net of housing allowances, exceed 40% of total disposable household income, net of housing allowances. Map reported percentages for one shared year using fixed bands. Reported zero and missing values have separate colours. No interpolation is applied. Select the newest year with at least half the highest annual count of reporting economies in this retained dataset (18 minimum). Missing values are excluded from the ranking and remain in the table; ties sort by geography code.

30 of 35 retained reporting economies have values in 2025; coverage is not a complete world ranking. Highest does not imply best.

EU-SILC survey methods and breaks may affect comparability. Original status flags are retained.

Only EU, EFTA and eligible candidate-country data are selected for reusable public output.

Regional aggregates and poverty-status subgroup rows are excluded.

Source notes and numeric strings remain unchanged in downloads. The latest retained reporting year can differ across datasets.

Natural Earth outlines; small economies remain in the table. Boundaries do not imply a position on territorial status.
