Quartile
Quartiles divide the population into four equally sized groups by disposable income per consumption unit. Households in the first quartile have the lowest income and households in the fourth quartile have the highest income. The survey has been redesigned and conducted with a smaller sample size in 2020. The smaller sample size increases the margin of error. New households are interviewed every week during the reference year with the new design. The housing expenditures refer to a period of 12 months from the time of the interview. Previous surveys have been conducted the year after the reference year with retrospective questions about the households expenditures the reference year. These changes mean that comparisons between years must be made with caution as differences between the years are not necessarily due to actual changes.
The statistics do not include households living in institutions, households in own rental property and households engaged in business activities, such as farmers, who can not distinguish their living expenses from the business activities. Households in Owner-occupied one- or two-dwelling houses or Tenant-owned dwellings that moved in during the reference year and therefore did not have housing expenses throughout the year are not included in the statistics in 2015 and 2017. The statistics do not include households in second-hand housing, student housing, senior housing, households that rented a furnished dwelling and households where there were a lodger.
Owner-occupied one- or two-dwelling houses refer to detached single family houses, semi-detached houses, terraced houses or link-attached houses that the household owns.
Tenant-owned dwelling: A dwelling situated in a one- or two-dwelling house or multi-dwelling building that is owned by an owners´ association, in which one is a member.
Rented dwelling refers to a rented dwelling where the tenant has a first-hand contract, both in one- or two-dwelling houses and multi-dwelling buildings. Correction 25/10/2022: The variable for calculating the quartiles has been replaced, which means that the average housing expenditure and the number of households in each quartile have changed. The correction affects the quartiles but not the totals. The correction refers to the year 2015 and 2017.
Two dots (..) means that the number is too uncertain to be stated. The survey is based on a random selection of individuals 18 years and over and the households to which the selected individuals belong. The values in the tables are only estimates of true values in the population. The uncertainty in the estimates is expressed with a confidence interval formed by the estimate ± the margin of error. The confidence interval contains the true population value with 95 percent probability. Housing expenditures
Owner-occupied one- or two-dwelling houses: Housing expenditures refer to the sum of interest fees, amortisation, operating expenditures (such as heating, water, sewerage and garbage collection) and fees for maintenance and repair. These expenditures are adjusted with regard to tax effects.
Tenant-owned dwelling: Housing expenditures refer to the sum of fees to the tenant-owners´ association, interest fees and amortisation as well as individual fees for maintenance and repairs. These expenditures are adjusted with regard to tax effects.
Rented dwelling: Housing expenditures consist of the sum of the rent and individual fees for maintenance and repairs.
Tax effects refer to a decrease or increase in tax due to tax reduction for capital losses and for maintenance and repair related to the dwelling and the household´s property tax for the dwelling. In addition, any tax on deferred capital from sales of a previous dwelling is included. Disposable income
Disposable income is the sum of taxable and tax free income minus taxes and negative transfers.
Since property tax and tax deductions for maintenance and repair (ROT) and capital losses and tax on deferred income after sale of previous homes are used to calculate housing expenses, those amounts are not included in the available income reported here. In this way, this income differs from the disposable income reported in the official income statistics. The disposable income includes all households´ income, including the children´s income. To make comparisons of eg disposable income and economic purchasing power between different types of households a weight system where consumption is related to household composition is used. The disposable income is divided by the consumption weight that applies to the household. Housekeeping unit refers to the household made up of all persons who live together and have a common economy so that the various persons´ expenditures can not, in a meaningful way, be separated. Children aged 20 or older, and still living with their parents, are also included in the housekeeping unit. A housekeeping unit can also consist of several generations, siblings or others, who live together and have common housekeeping.
Single persons without children: households with one adult and no children.
Cohabiting persons without children: households with two adults in cohabitation and no children.
Single persons with children: households with one adult and at least one child 0–19 years.
Cohabiting persons with children: households with two adults in cohabitation and at least one child 0–19 years.
Other households: households where there, in addition to the definition of one of the other household types, is at least one person who is 20 years or older. It can be either a child older than 19 years or another person who has a common household with the reference person.
