What this series is

In the survey for 2025, a person living alone was at risk of poverty if, in the previous year, they had had less than 8 679 euros, after taxes and social contributions and including social benefits. That is the line Eurostat draws at 60 % of the country’s median income, adjusted for each household’s size and composition. Median means the one in the middle: half the population has more and half has less.
