Equivalised disposable income

Disposable income is the sum of all taxable and tax-free income minus taxes and negative transfers. The income is available both including and excluding capital gains/losses, that is, the gain/loss arising from a sale (realization) of assets, for example, stocks, mutual funds or real estate.



Incomes are equivalised, which means that the household disposable income is adjusted for household size by using a weight system. The unit of measurement is equivalised disposable income for persons.



Upon publication of statistics regarding income year 2021, a modified equivalence scale was introduced. The modified scale includes weights for children with shared residence when the parents do not live together. The modified scale is applied from the year 2011, that is, statistics for the years 2011-2020 have been revised.



The nationwide divisions DeSO (Demographic Statistical Areas) and RegSO (Regional Statistical Areas) apply from 1 January 2018 and 1 June 2020, respectively, and follow the county and municipal borders. RegSO has been created by aggregating DeSO. Further information on DeSO and RegSO can be found on Statistics Sweden´s website.

Between 2014 and 2015, there is a change in the method used to connect people to a specific DeSO. Before 2015, property coordinates were used, while address coordinates is used in 2015 and subsequent years. This means that there will be a minor break in the statistics on DeSO and RegSO between 2014 and 2015.



The statistics include salaries and pension income from other Nordic countries from income year 2011. As of the publication of income year 2020, the statistics for the years 2011-2019 have been revised. Further information can be found in the statistics quality declaration on Statistics Sweden website. RegSO (Regional Statistical Areas) and DeSO (Demographic Statistical Areas) are Statistics Sweden´s breakdowns at a low regional level. DeSO consists of around 6,000 area codes while RegSO consists of around 3,000 area codes. The areas can be aggregated into municipalities and counties. RegSO is an aggregate of various DeSO codes. Some individuals cannot be geographically located within the municipality. These have been allocated to DeSO/RegSO in the central locality of the municipality to avoid identification.

From the reference year 2024, there is a new updated version of DeSO and RegSO (DeSO 2025 and RegSO 2025, previously DeSO 2018 and RegSO 2020). Several revisions have been made in the new versions. Some changes are more extensive, making all areas not comparable over time. More information about DeSO, RegSO and the revisions can be found here (in Swedish):
